=================================================================== |
| 15 |
1. Roll call |
| 16 |
alexxy, creffett, dilfridge, johu, kensington, reavertm |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Welcome new developers kensington and creffett. Thanks to JoseJX for |
| 19 |
participating as member of the powerpc team. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
2. Add LINGUAS support to cmake-utils.eclass |
| 22 |
Agreed to add a loop like that in qt4-r2.eclass to reduce ebuild code. It |
| 23 |
expands the contents of LANGS to IUSE as linguas_*. A generic linguas handling |
| 24 |
is not planed yet. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
3. Live KDE ebuilds have tests restricted |
| 27 |
The usefulness of tests on live ebuilds was brought into question, since there |
| 28 |
are enough problems with tests on normal releases. Agreed to enable tests when |
| 29 |
I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING is set. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
4. KDE 4.8 stabilization and PowerPC |
| 32 |
The stabilization and keywording was pending up to the team meeting date, |
| 33 |
because of gcc47 as requirement to restore the keywords on ppc/ppc64. This |
| 34 |
blocker was mistaken added. PowerPC needs just Qt 4.8.1 to keyword KDE 4.8. |
| 35 |
So there are no reasons the discuss to drop the ppc support from kde-base. |
| 36 |
We never stabilized a KDE version on ppc64, because ppc64 has problems with |
| 37 |
the size of the table of contents for ELF function calls that will be fixed |
| 38 |
with gcc 4.7. johu ask for voting on dropping ppc64 at all. No real |
| 39 |
majority/opinions about it. JoseJX prefers that ~ppc64 not be dropped from KDE |
| 40 |
keywords. Agreed that JoseJX would keyword ~ppc, and if there were no problems |
| 41 |
would also keyword ~ppc64, topic will be revisited. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
5. Bugs |
| 44 |
* Trying to change full name in KDE System Settings results in error or crash |
| 45 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/380899 |
| 46 |
There is an existing workaround to disable the change full name functionality. |
| 47 |
kensington will talk to upstream about the issue, and if there is no good |
| 48 |
response in 2 weeks' time, we will apply the workaround. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
* app-cdr/k3b: use media-libs/musicbrainz:3 instead of :1 |
| 51 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/410347 |
| 52 |
Agreed that musicbrainz:1 is obsolete and that k3b does not appear to actually |
| 53 |
use musicbrainz even when enabled. Dependency on musicbrainz will be dropped. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
* dev-util/cmake: FindPythonLibs behaviour broken by Gentoo patches |
| 56 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/405181 |
| 57 |
Dilfridge said that we should remove the patches and use command-line defines |
| 58 |
to force specific python versions, agreed to test that. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
* kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.9.0 and kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.8_p20110714 |
| 61 |
wrong doc dir specified - https://bugs.gentoo.org/410139 |
| 62 |
Nobody has been able to reproduce the bug. Dilfridge suggested asking for more |
| 63 |
information and will investigate further. |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
* kde-misc/interceptor - KDE4 Plasmoid - intercept (catch) the log info from |
| 66 |
the syslog - https://bugs.gentoo.org/383733 |
| 67 |
creffett suggested dropping this request because it requires too many big |
| 68 |
configuration changes for a plasmoid. Agreed to remove kde from CC list and |
| 69 |
suggest taking the ebuild to sunrise. |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
* dev-util/cmake-2.8.6-r4 - stop Xvfb after failed test phase |
| 72 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/406353 |
| 73 |
Need input from gentoo-portage team about what phase could be used to clean up |
| 74 |
xvfb after test failures. Kensington mentioned that the same issue will affect |
| 75 |
virtualdbus. |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
6. Open Floor |
| 78 |
* KDE 4.9 Beta |
| 79 |
Dilfridge reported that KDE 4.9 beta is coming out soon. |
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
* Groupdav calendar bug in kdepim-runtime |
| 82 |
Discussed whether to stabilize kdepim-runtime base version or -r2, which has a |
| 83 |
possible fix for https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415401 but no |
| 84 |
positive feedback. Agreed to go with -r2. |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
* creffett away |
| 87 |
creffett will be out for a month on a trip with little internet access. |
