 emily | Grimmauld (any/all): it looks like python-qt is killing off those gepetto-* packages, and fcitx5-chinese-addons will mess up our fcitx5 test | 20:31:48 |
| emily | everything else looks ok to me | 20:31:49 |
| emily | doing the pyside treatment to python-qt is optional since it looks like it's only that one gepetto-* thing and who knows if it uses WebEngine; I'm guessing the CSound dep is optional and could be handled similarly to SuperCollider though, and that also pulls in python-qt, so if neither of those hard-depend on WebEngine maybe it's worth it?
for fcitx5-chinese-addons, would you mind looking at how hard the WebEngine dep is? I notice that it supports both Qt 6 and Qt 5 and https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/fcitx5-chinese-addons/ only depends on Qt 6 WebEngine

| emily | perhaps we should simply adjust this alias and kill the Qt 5 version? | 20:33:37 |
| emily | other than that it looks mergeable. the backport might require some fiddling, but we should maybe give it a week before backporting anyway to see if anything hugely blows up | 20:34:13 |
| emily | I want to nit about withWebengine should really be withWebEngine but I'll restrain myself by layering it in this hypothetical :P | 20:34:33 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | lol fair | 20:35:24 |
| emily | the package count honestly looks a lot less bad than I was fearing | 20:35:38 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | i can poke casually today, but expect a proper cleanup tomorrow evening | 20:35:40 |
| emily | if Jellyfin get off their butts then it seems like we could drop it entirely | 20:36:03 |
| emily | https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-media-player/issues/537 | 20:37:06 |
| emily | looks like this is blocking them | 20:37:10 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | tbh that fcitx thing pulling qt6 webengine in arch looks weird | 20:37:29 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | no cli flags or anything that would suggest its actually being used | 20:37:39 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | just -DUSE_WEBKIT=Off, but i'd hope that toggles actual webkit, not webengine | 20:37:59 |
| emily | well presumably it toggles WebKit off in favour of WebEngine | 20:38:08 |

| emily | ENABLE_BROWSER | 20:38:22 |
| emily | I don't want to think about what's going on there, but it shouldn't matter, if all we need to do is move to Qt 6 | 20:38:36 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | but there is aQT_MAJOR_VERSION, imo the arch package is weird | 20:39:03 |
| emily | huh? | 20:39:09 |
| emily | we offer the fcitx5-qt stuff for both Qt 5 and Qt 6 | 20:39:15 |
| emily | and seemingly default to the former via alias | 20:39:19 |
| emily | I think we just need to drop the former and migrate to the latter, for all those packages | 20:39:27 |
| emily | and then no more Qt 5 in that closure | 20:39:34 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | yeah that sounds reasonable | 20:39:41 |
