Most probably not but we are still trying [17:10:15] <jaheikki3> Any comments or questions? [17:11:35] <thiago> there are still things to add [17:11:53] <thiago> we're not in freeze yet, are we? [17:12:11] <jaheikki3> thiago: what do you mean? [17:13:16] <thiago> there are still changes in the 5.10.0 branch [17:13:34] <thiago> well, one of them is the changelog [17:13:42] <thiago> so I guess we're waiting for a couple rounds of integgration [17:14:10] <jaheikki3> Yes, most of those open changes are related to merge from 5.9.3 [17:14:38] <jaheikki3> So yes, those needs to be in before we can create RC packages [17:14:43] <carewolf> Do we want https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/207231/ in 5.10.0 or should it moved to dev? [17:14:43] <qt_gerrit> carewolf: [qt/qtbase/5.10] Add missing dead key symbols from Matt Whitlock - https://codereview.qt-project.org/207231 (NEW) [17:15:00] <carewolf> it fixes input of some greek and russian characters [17:15:08] <jaheikki3> And of course we need to get at least one qt5.git integration through [17:15:54] <jaheikki3> carewolf: it is just p2 so I think it can wait 5.10.1 [17:15:59] <lars> carewolf: 5.10.1 [17:16:05] <carewolf> it adds new enum values [17:16:48] <jaheikki3> carewolf: if it can't be taken in 5.10.1 then it should go 'dev' instead [17:17:35] <jaheikki3> but no 5.10.0 stuff anymotre [17:17:53] <carewolf> ok [17:18:55] <jaheikki3> I think it was all at this time. Let's end this meeting now & have new one Tue 28th Nov as planned [17:19:03] <carewolf> webengine is still blocking as we have a success-rate only slightly better than qtbase, but with a much longer turn-around time. Some of the patches that needs to into 5.10.0RC has failed to integrate for over 2 weeks [17:19:44] <jaheikki3> carewolf: yeah, we know :( Let's hope ci will finally behave [17:19:51] <carewolf> if the CI doesn't get better soon, it could easily take two week more [17:20:16] <lars> carewolf: if it's flakyness in the CI, make sure you restage exactly the same changes after the failure for the next round. then it'll pick up where it failed before and not recompile from scratch [17:20:56] <carewolf> it is all kinds of issues, half have been failing to allocate a machine or timeouts [17:20:56] <frkleint> ?? [17:21:02] <frkleint> Some new magic? [17:21:10] <lars> frkleint: no, that has been there for some time [17:21:27] <carewolf> but yes, with the 5.10.0 staging hopefully CI only failures can just be rerun [17:21:54] <lars> if you restage the same changes, you'll get the same content, and COIN will recognise that and reuse artifacts and results that have been created in the last round [17:22:24] <lars> ie. everything that's succeeded is being re-used [17:25:06] <jaheikki3> Thanks for your participation, bye! [17:25:21] <ankokko__> bye _______________________________________________ Releasing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/releasing
