Hi Everyone. No, I haven't forgotten about the 4.9.4 release. I simply (as usual) have gotten sucked into the never ending nightmare that is our platform support matrix and related CI.
A few days of getting OBS and LaunchPad builds back to working (and a great thanks to everyone who tested those!). Now on day three of trying to get our Android CI infrastructure back to working order (yeah, this isn't really related to a 4.9.4 release, but having every build, every PR on GitHub show up as failed is really distracting and frustrating). In this process I have learned that Qt 5.14 completely breaks Android builds. There are many excited posts by the maintainers about the new features, and tons and tons of threads by developers pointing out all the ways in which those "features" break existing apps and how the developers clearly didn't take into account how people actually use Qt on Android. At this point, some people have gotten qmake based apps to work again on Android (requiring a massive amount of porting work - for a random minor version update). But apparently no one has gotten a cmake app to work. I have abandoned this after two wasted days and am trying to get a working Qt 5.13.2 based Android build that still works with our GitHub CI. Once I have that I will go back to focusing on 4.9.4. I'm thinking we should be able to freeze things next week and release soon after that. /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
