K900 | Oh yeah, Jellyfin too | 08:24:28 |
emily | "Note: Plex is no longer actively maintaining Plex Media Player." | 08:24:30 |
emily | never mind! | 08:24:32 |
emily | it's not painful at all! | 08:24:34 |
emily | it's been unmaintained since 2021! | 08:24:42 |
K900 | jellyfin-media-player is stuck on qwe5 for some weird technical reason | 08:25:11 |
emily | https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-media-player/pull/599 | 08:25:43 |
K900 | Something about how it interacts with how they render the UI on top | 08:25:55 |
K900 | Or something | 08:25:56 |
emily | "This branch is fully unsuitable for release, and releasing it would currently add no value to the ecosystem." | 08:26:00 |
emily | otoh "The most reasonable way forward is to ride Qt5 until compat loses support". | 08:26:10 |
emily | it seems like they at least care about the EOL, so perhaps they'll migrate by 25.05? | 08:26:31 |
emily | subsurface, Linus's third most popular program | 08:27:06 |
K900 | There should be one last Qt5 release around 25.05 | 08:28:13 |
K900 | So presumably they can ride that out | 08:28:19 |
emily | it's basically guaranteed there's a Chromium CVE that doesn't get backported within 6 months of that, surely | 08:28:42 |
K900 | (and also, at this point it wouldn't surprise me to have Qt extend the window even more) | 08:28:48 |
emily | like past EOL we're basically doing a QtWebKit to our users | 08:29:19 |
K900 | Given how much stuff is still on Qt5 for their commercial customers | 08:29:21 |
emily | anyway I feel like we could probably do a clean-up of applications that are clearly never getting ported off Qt 5 WebEngine at least | 08:33:11 |
emily | but probably we ought not to break Jellyfin on unstable | 08:33:22 |
outfoxxed | In reply to @k900:0upti.me Ping me again in a couple days if you can K900 ping, can come back later if need be | 12:15:37 |
K900 | Yes please | 12:18:49 |
K900 | I'm having a pretty bad migraine | 12:18:53 |

outfoxxed | Whats the best way to override the entire qt source set with another version? | 01:30:34 |
outfoxxed | ideally with an .override of some kind and not "check out nixpkgs and edit all the files" | 01:31:04 |
outfoxxed | After getting 6.8.1 building, I see its slightly more complex than that, but I haven't figured out how to overlay the qt scope as a whole | 05:35:51 |
outfoxxed | * After getting 6.8.1 building, I see its slightly more complex than that, and the next best thing would be a way to overlay the whole pkgs.qt6 scope | 05:36:24 |
