K900 | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/430636/files#diff-4bb387cbbf8b60e78109bae84995e14460ebe405262bdad75a9fda7002486c08R33 | 12:00:36 |
emily | I do not like this one bit. but ok | 12:05:03 |
emily | sort of feeling like the patch was better :P | 12:05:14 |
K900 | Absolutely not | 12:07:20 |
K900 | The patch was not better because it was ALREADY missing places that need to run as root | 12:07:20 |
K900 | And it'll only get worse over time | 12:07:34 |
K900 | Also, just trying to pkexec $random_command is cursed as hell | 12:08:17 |
emily | sure | 12:09:15 |
emily | I'm cool with merging | 12:09:21 |
ElvishJerricco | K900, emily: I've already asked you both independently, but discuss among yourselves because I am 0% brain at the moment: Do we need comments on all the issues telling them to re-report or anything? Or do we just update the readme and archive? | 12:10:38 |
K900 | IMO just archive | 12:10:50 |
K900 | Most issues are trash | 12:10:53 |
K900 | They're like "it segfaulted once for me in 2023" | 12:11:01 |
emily | there's only 15 issues | 12:11:03 |
K900 | We're not going to get value from that | 12:11:07 |
emily | it would take like 30 seconds to copy-paste something over all of them | 12:11:12 |
ElvishJerricco | actually, | 12:13:54 |
ElvishJerricco | why don't we merge the PR, and give it a week or so to make sure we don't decide to revert the vendoring | 12:14:14 |
ElvishJerricco | before we do any archiving | 12:14:21 |
emily | what are you imagining coming up that would make us choose to revert that? | 12:14:46 |
emily | but ok | 12:14:47 |
emily | I don't think there's anything urgent about it in any case other than it would be bad if we forget | 12:14:57 |
ElvishJerricco | I dunno I feel like nixpkgs ends up reverting things a lot because of strange unexpected results | 12:16:00 |
K900 | Anyway I'm sending it | 12:16:25 |
K900 | Now time to rebase the qt5 dorp | 12:16:34 |
K900 | * Now time to rebase the qt5 drops | 12:16:35 |
ElvishJerricco | lol ok. If it's not urgent to archive right away, I'll reconsider after I've become a brain-haver again. | 12:16:54 |
K900 | Yeah | 12:17:01 |
K900 | And now it's time to play whack-the-eval-error | 12:18:28 |
emily | can we mark WebEngine vulnerable on unstable now and then backport Qt 6 Calamares and the vulnerable marking to stable (with a Hydra exemption) | 12:20:22 |
