 K900 ⚡️ | * And we'll definitely have at least one more cycle to revert to 6.7 if it's really bad | 08:13:24 |
 outfoxxed | probably good enough then | 08:13:36 |
| K900 ⚡️ | But if it goes for 3 weeks, we'll have maybe two weeks to last possible revert point | 08:14:32 |
| K900 ⚡️ | And that's going to suck | 08:14:39 |
| K900 ⚡️ | I guess one thing we have going for us is that there's other distros | 08:14:59 |
| K900 ⚡️ | That don't need two weeks to ship a Qt update | 08:15:12 |
| outfoxxed | please beta test, arch 🙏 | 08:15:17 |
| K900 ⚡️ | So we may have a rough baseline for 6.8 from that | 08:15:29 |
| outfoxxed | is that two weeks worth of qt rebuilds or just having to fit that in a staging cycle | 08:15:58 |
| K900 ⚡️ | Or maybe I'm overthinking all of this and Randy just killed it on the Darwin stdenv rewrite and it'll go smoothly and we will not have problems | 08:16:14 |

is that two weeks worth of qt rebuilds or just having to fit that in a staging cycle The overall staging cycle | 08:16:20 |
| K900 ⚡️ | Qt itself is something like 3k rebuilds | 08:16:37 |
| K900 ⚡️ | Which is not insignificant, but not a huge amount by staging terms | 08:16:48 |

| outfoxxed | I'll just wait till the 6.8 merge into unstable to rewrite the patch, and leave it for merging later | 08:20:55 |

And we'll definitely have at least one more cycle to revert to 6.7 if it's really bad Honestly all the 6.7 was really bad. Regressions every patch release. | 02:22:02 |

And ideally I'd like to get 6.8 and the patch in two separate cycles so we don't have to play "was it this change or that change" when something explodes i bet you will have a hard time given that 6.8 has removed a porting pill define | 02:22:50 |

| K900 ⚡️ | We don't really have much in terms of Qt6 software that's not KDE | 07:09:32 |
 aloisw | Half of the non-KDE Qt software I use is Qt6… | 07:14:16 |

| K900 ⚡️ | Woo | 09:22:11 |
| K900 ⚡️ | 6.8.0 dropped | 09:22:16 |
| K900 ⚡️ | And none of our patches apply | 09:23:44 |
| K900 ⚡️ | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/347268 | 10:24:56 |
| K900 ⚡️ | OK it wasn't as bad as I initially thought | 10:25:10 |
 Viorel-Cătălin Răpițeanu | It seems that Plasma 6.2.0 also just dropped: https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.2.0/ | 11:42:12 |
