 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 | https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Afcitx%2Ffcitx5-chinese-addons%20webengine&type=code | 20:38:20 |
| 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 |
| emily | though | 20:39:50 |
| emily | paths = [
fcitx5
libsForQt5.fcitx5-qt
qt6Packages.fcitx5-qt
fcitx5-gtk
]
| 20:39:52 |
| emily | maybe this is one of those things where you need both because lol input methods | 20:39:58 |
| emily | K900: do you have wisdom | 20:40:01 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | i hate graphical systems so damn much | 20:40:17 |
| emily | but fwiw the test only does
fcitx5.addons = [
pkgs.fcitx5-chinese-addons
pkgs.fcitx5-hangul
pkgs.fcitx5-m17n
pkgs.fcitx5-mozc
];
| 20:40:34 |
| emily | which only pulls in the Qt 5 one | 20:40:37 |
| emily | so I don't expect only pulling in the Qt 6 one could be worse | 20:40:43 |
 K900 | No | 20:40:55 |
| K900 | I don't know fcitx | 20:40:58 |
| emily | welp | 20:57:37 |
| emily | does it have an active maintainer | 20:57:42 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | uh | 21:04:20 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | fabianhjr just merged the thing... | 21:04:30 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | so uh, switch fcitx5 to qt6 and just hope for the best? | 21:05:01 |
