LocutusOfBorgmwhudson, I'm adding a new golang-1.13 race foo detector package :/09:09
ronjHi. I'm following up on issue https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/issues/6430 , where I complain I'm having trouble building Clementine (a Qt-based audio player) under 19.10 because libqjson-dev is absent from the eoan repos (and libqjson0 too, both were packaged until disco). Can anyone help with: 1. reasons this package disappeared, 2. if it will be packaged again in the future, 3. workarounds suggestions?13:31
mitya57ronj: qjson was removed because Qt now has JSON parser and writer built-in. See Debian #935705 for the removal request (the removal in Debian was then picked up by Ubuntu).13:34
ubottuDebian bug 935705 in ftp.debian.org "RM: qjson -- ROM; Dead upstream, uses Qt 4, superseded by Qt 5 itself" [Normal,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/93570513:34
mitya57Workarounds/suggestions: use https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/json.html13:36
ronjmitya57: great, exactly what I was looking for; replying with this in the issue :) . Out of curiosity, for me to know in the future: is this something you already knew or did you search for it? Where/how? Thanks!13:49
mitya57ronj: in this case I already knew, but you can look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qjson/+publishinghistory, expand the first entry, and you will see the reason.13:57
ronjmitya57: great, didn't know this info was in Launchpad. Thanks!13:58
