Source: stellarium Version: 0.13.3-1 Severity: serious Dear Maintainer,
Stellarium has a copy of qzipreader/writer header files taken out of Qt, and uses the internal, but unfortuantely available, symbols out of Qt Gui. It can be directly seen due to the dependency on the internal qt versioning as in qtbase-abi-5-3-2 which is generally a sign of doing something dirty, and will require a rebuild on each new Qt upload. If the QZipReader/writer classes changes (they can do that, they are an internal thing to Qt), stellarium will not work or maybe even crash randomly. I'd suggest one of the following solutions: 1) Use an actual public zipping library. KArchive and quazip are two currently available in Debian 2) Copy out the relevant bits from Qt *and rename* them (like add a namespace or something). (The current qzip.cpp found in the external directory could be used, but needs to actually be built. Hint: ! is not a valid negation operator in cmake) 3) much discouraged, but still better than status quo. Use the privately exposed headers in qtbase5-private-dev of qzipreader_p.h and qzipwriter_p.h to at least ensure that things are in sync. This also requires changes to the build system. 4) convince Qt upstream to make QZip* public api. That's likely not going to happen, and even if it was, we would need a interrim solution. Getting something going soon would be nice to detangle stellarium from the next qt upload. And 3) doesn't solve that. I do somewhere have a quick and dirty patch for 2), but I really think you should consider 1). /Sune -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
