| mitya57 | tsimonq2: thanks. I expect it to greatly reduce when the Debian importer starts next cycle, as we have recently bumped our bugs to release-critical. | 06:43 |
| mitya57 | Ah, you want to do that before the archive opens… | 06:45 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> The goal, yes | 07:04 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Do I actually think it will happen? Probably not | 07:04 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> I definitely want to aim for before 20.04 is released though as a final date | 07:05 |
| lubot | <mitya57> Well, if the archive admins agree to remove so many packages at once, it may happen. | 07:18 |
| lubot | <mitya57> The tricky part may be some source packages where only a part of them needs Qt4 (see comments in https://wiki.debian.org/Qt4Removal, e.g. backintime, nfs-ganesha). In this case removing the whole source is not needed. … Also we need to fix 4 flavors. | 07:21 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Right | 07:21 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> I think vorlon might do it | 07:21 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> (mass removal, if requested) | 07:21 |
| lubot | <mitya57> Good for us then | 07:21 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> I don't think that's the hard part though. Finding trigger happy AAs isn't necessarily a hard thing to do :P | 07:22 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> I think most of the flavors just depend on fcitx | 07:22 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Our next task really should be identifying those source packages that only partially depend on Qt 4 | 07:22 |
| lubot | <mitya57> There are some comments on that wiki page but they are not complete and not structured | 07:23 |
| lubot | <mitya57> E.g. lightdm definitely shouldn't be removed, but there is no comment about it | 07:23 |
| lubot | <mitya57> Also there are some Ubuntu-specific packages. | 07:24 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Okay | 07:24 |
| lubot | <mitya57> What do you think about removing qtwebkit & qtwebkit-source this cycle? At least one of them :) | 07:26 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Sounds good to me | 07:26 |
| lubot | <mitya57> I wonder who synced qtwebkit — it was not in disco (and I believe it was even in sync blacklist) | 07:26 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @acheronuk ^ ? | 07:27 |
| lubot | <mitya57> Looks like it was LocutusOfBorg actually | 07:27 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> One of the two I thought :) | 07:27 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @mitya57 [What do you think about removing qtwebkit & qtwebkit-source this cycle? At least …], I'll set up a transition tracker now | 07:28 |
| lubot | <mitya57> Thanks. There should be just a few packages but I'm from phone now so can't check. | 07:29 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Yeah, just a couplke | 07:29 |
| lubot | <mitya57> 👍 | 07:38 |
| lubot | <RikMills> @mitya57 [I wonder who synced qtwebkit — it was not in disco (and I believe it was even in …], LOB did | 07:50 |
| lubot | <RikMills> as somthing didn't build against: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtwebkit-source | 07:52 |
| lubot | <mitya57> If something doesn't build the right thing would be removing it | 07:57 |
| lubot | <mitya57> So… https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/html/qtwebkit-rm.html | 11:56 |
| lubot | <mitya57> Quite some stuff uses PySide.QtWebKit: https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=from+PySide.QtWebKit+import | 12:02 |
| lubot | <mitya57> And some of those don‘t even have bugs filed in Debian… Doing that now. | 12:06 |
| lisandro | Thanks | 15:43 |
