[10:47] <mitya57> Status update on Qt 5.15.1: 32 of 36 packages are ready in Debian experimental. Qt WebEngine still not ready, I am working on a script to generate debian/copyright.
[14:14] <lubot> <Santa> decopy doesn't work for that?
[14:15] <lubot> <mitya57> Decopy's output is tens of thousands of lines with too much junk. I am trying to use upstream's README.chromium files.
[14:16] <lubot> <Santa> thanks for info (yeah I was guessing decopy wasn't working fine for that specific package)
[14:19] <lubot> <Santa> @mitya57 FYI I plan to do some experiments with qt packaging & ubuntu in the next weekeds, are you going to be available for questions and such?
[14:19] <lubot> <mitya57> Yes, I should be available.
[14:21] <lubot> <Santa> Ack, FYI, I'm going to try to make your life easier when uploading the packages to ubuntu
[14:21] <lubot> <Santa> your life, our live, whatever...
[14:22] <lubot> <mitya57> @Santa [Ack, FYI, I'm going to try to make your life easier when uploading the packages …], `--verbose` please :)
[14:23] <lubot> <Santa> I would pefer to keep it to myself for now because I don't have time to explain
[14:23] <lubot> <Santa> and I need time to explain + doing some R&D first
[14:23] <lubot> <Santa> I'm @ work right now
[14:23] <lubot> <Santa> paid work
[14:23] <lubot> <mitya57> Ok, no problem
[14:24] <lubot> <Santa> so just be patient and I will try to come back to you with something, ok?
[14:24] <lubot> <mitya57> Sure
[19:03] <lubot> <Santa> @mitya57 ok, I have been thinking a bit about it
[19:03] <lubot> <Santa> just one question: you are doing qt packages in your free time, correct?
[19:04] <lubot> <Santa> I mean saturdays and sundays are good for you to discuss things?
[19:20] <lubot> <Santa> if so my draft plain is:
[19:20] <lubot> <Santa> 1. I'm going to do some R&D (and I'm going to need your help)
[19:21] <lubot> <Santa> 2. I'm going to tell you a story about cantaloupes (and I would need you to allocate some time for that) (yes, I'm serious) (no, I'm not crazy)
[19:22] <lubot> <Santa> 3. I'm going to explain you some technical things (and I would need you to allocate some time)
[19:23] <lubot> <Santa> and that's it, I'm not going to promise you the paradise on earth, but I promise it's worth your time researching this kind of thing
[19:24] <lubot> <Santa> and maybe after all of that you could reconsider this: https://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/2020/08/stepping-down-as-qt-6-maintainers.html
[19:29] <lubot> <mitya57> @Santa [2. I'm going to tell you a story about cantaloupes (and I would need you to allo …], Interesting. I stay intrigued :)
[19:30] <lubot> <mitya57> @Santa [I mean saturdays and sundays are good for you to discuss things?], I am working in my free time, but it doesn't correlate well with the week days. So it should be good but doesn't differ much from, say, tomorrow.
[19:31] <lubot> <Santa> ok, for me best is weekends because I work from monday to friday
[19:32] <lubot> <Santa> so let's try this weekend to start the 1. part
[19:33] <lubot> <mitya57> Ok
