[17:00:47] <thiago> jaheikki3_: pong? [17:00:51] <thiago> -? [17:01:02] <akseli> jaheikki3_: pong [17:01:34] <jaheikki3_> Time to start qt release team meeting [17:01:39] <jaheikki3_> On agenda today: [17:01:45] <jaheikki3_> Qt 6.5 status [17:01:48] <jaheikki3_> qt 6.4 status [17:01:55] <The-Compiler> thiago: https://paste.the-compiler.org/view/a16123a9 - which sounded like qmake depending on glibc 2.34 which is too new for Ubuntu 20.04 [17:01:57] <jaheikki3_> Any additional item to the agenda? [17:02:13] <vladimir-minenko> thiago: glibc in Ubuntu 20.04, for example [17:03:17] <vladimir-minenko> jaheikki3_: Maybe, declaring the missing dates in https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_6.5_Release some time soon... ;-) [17:04:04] <jaheikki3_> The-Compiler: thiago: npm: like vladimir-minenko already wrote this issue is because existing dev snapshot is done by using RHEL 9 and it has too new glibc for Ubuntu 20.04. That will be "fixed" with the next snapshot which is build by using rhel8 again [17:04:55] <jaheikki3_> Let's start from Qt 6.5 status [17:05:11] <thiago> The-Compiler: yes, don't downgrade distros [17:05:40] <jaheikki3_> Qt 6.5 beta2 released last friday [17:05:49] <jaheikki3_> Qt 6.5 beta3 preparations to be started soon [17:06:00] <jaheikki3_> Target is to release Qt 6.3 beta3 ~mid February [17:06:18] <jaheikki3_> (and beta4 at the end of february) [17:06:50] <jaheikki3_> Target is to branch from '6.5' to '6.5.0' beginning of march [17:07:16] <vohi> given the current challenges with CI stability (most recently, lots of failing tests after upgrading the macOS ARM hosts), we need to keep an extra eye on cherry-picks making it into the 6.5 branch. Some of those address comments from header review and such. [17:07:46] <jaheikki3_> That's true [17:08:19] <jaheikki3_> Qt 6.5.0 string freeze will be in effect 23th february [17:08:39] <jaheikki3_> vladimir-minenko: I'll update these dates in the wiki soon... [17:08:53] <jaheikki3_> Qt 6.5 API Change review still ongoing, see https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-109580 [17:09:16] <jaheikki3_> Updating 3rd party components for Qt 6.5 also ongoing, see status from https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-110331 [17:09:46] <jaheikki3_> That's all about qt6.5 status at this time. any comments or questions? [17:10:05] <thiago> vohi: might be a good idea to paste the link to the "missing gems" again to the ML [17:10:29] <vohi> yep, will do [17:10:46] <vohi> jaheikki3_: do you plan to push another header review patch set? [17:11:47] <jaheikki3_> vohi:do you mean updates to open ones? I can do that later this week [17:12:38] <vohi> yep. thanks! [17:13:02] <jaheikki3_> Ok, then quick Qt 6.4 status update [17:13:33] <jaheikki3_> the plan is to release Qt 6.4.3 during February [17:13:45] <jaheikki3_> so branching from '6.4' to '6.4.3' will happen ~mid February [17:14:12] <jaheikki3_> And the target is that Qt 6.4.3 will be the last release from the Qt 6.4 series [17:14:38] <jaheikki3_> that's all about 6.4 at this time. Any comments or questions? [17:16:50] <thiago> sounds good [17:17:02] <jaheikki3_> great, it was all at this time.
