[EPEL-devel] Re: Qt update and packages rebuild

2022-10-04 Thread Germano Massullo

As I wrote in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2129662#c11
I did not know that epel packages are used also in CentOS Stream, 
sometimes causing issues like the one previously mentioned.


In fact this behaviour obliges epel maintainers that wanted to maintain 
RHEL only, to work to maintain CentOS Stream too.

This an additional source of troubles for package maintainers

There hasn't been a qt update in CentOS Stream 8 or 9 since May 2022, 
so you'll have to give more information.


I double checked and I found out the origin of my misunderstanding. I 
wrote everything in this comment

[EPEL-devel] failed build of kernel 4.x for EL7

2022-05-23 Thread Germano Massullo

Good day,

on Fedora Copr I am trying to build kernel 4.x [1] for EL7.

The problem is that the build [2] fails on "No Package found for 
llvm-toolset-7.0"


I checked the srpm and devtoolset for llvm are present and also enabled 
(line 1110), so I really wonder what is wrong.


Thank you for your help

Looking at  keepassxc specifically, I'd say take the following line 
out of the spec file.

  %{?_qt5:Requires: %{_qt5}%{?_isa} = %{_qt5_version}}

If you let rpmbuild figure out the dependencies (which it is already 
doing fairly well), then it will know when there is a real ABI change 
and you need to rebuild the package.

Looking at
  "dnf repoquery --requires keepassxc | grep -i qt"
and then looking at the changes that happened in qt5, it looks like it 
wouldn't have needed a rebuild if the Requires wasn't manually set.


I'm not saying rpmbuild is 100% perfect for figuring out requires, but 
in this case it was doing it right.


That macro is needed to avoid situations where users somehow manage to 
install keepassxc on a system with old Qt version like in following 
bugreport

It is almost the same, even if there are more features on 2.x

1) No
2) Yes but once you open (with the 2.0 version) the XMP files attached
to your photos, you cannot open them again with the older 1.6.x version,
because the software updates those files to the newer format.

Hi, I am one of the Darktable maintainers.
Darktable 2.0 is going too be released soon. According to EPEL policies, I
could not release such major release for EPEL/RHEL 7.
Do you usually apply this rule strictly or sometimes you make an exception?
New version of Darktable will rely on GTK3, but concerning the remaining
