Re: Re: QT target version for trixie
I appreciate the advice to target Qt 6 when possible. I'd like to switch Digikam from Qt5 to Qt6. Is there a guide to replacing package names? For example, Digikam builds with qtbase5-dev. I can't find qtbase6-dev in the archive. Am I overlooking something? Thanks, -Steve signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

akonadi database creating 300MB+ log message per day
I'm seeing odd behaviour but not sure where the fault lies -- it is perhaps some configuration issue on my part -- so asking here before filing a bug. The file ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/mysql.err is being spammed by error logs many times per minute: 2023-07-01 13:06:27 256 [ERROR] Incorrect definition of table mysql.column_stats: expected column 'histogram' at position 10 to have type longblob, found type varbinary(255). 2023-07-01 13:06:27 256 [ERROR] Incorrect definition of table mysql.column_stats: expected column 'hist_type' at position 9 to have type enum('SINGLE_PREC_HB','DOUBLE_PREC_HB','JSON_HB'), found type enum('SINGLE_PREC_HB','DOUBLE_PREC_HB'). It's accruing at the rate of several hundred MB per day. I believe it's been going on for quite some time, because the mysql.err.old file was 35 GB by the time I caught it. When I search this string in google, I get lots of hits from the recent past to many years ago that all commonly suggest that an upgrade has gone wrong. Most of these actually deal with docker containers, but since my log file is under akonadi I think docker is not the problem. As a test, I did shut down docker completely and the logs still kept coming. A typical recommendation [1] is to run "mysql_upgrade" by hand. However, doing so gives another interesting error: $ mysql_upgrade Reading datadir from the MariaDB server failed. Got the following error when executing the 'mysql' command line client ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local server through socket '/run/mysqld/ mysqld.sock' (2) FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed In fact, the directory "/run/mysqld" doesn't even exist on the machine: $ ls -l /run/mysqld ls: cannot access '/run/mysqld': No such file or directory Is this a broken config here?? Any advice gratefully accepted.

Yep, I'll re-test and update/close the bug once 5.27.2 hits me. Best -Steve signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Re: qtav: FTBFS with ffmpeg 5.0
Heads up for those following this bug: qtav appears to be unmaintained upstream. My only interest in the package was to enable video playback in digikam. Digikam upstream has taken most of the qtav code, incorporated into digikam source tree and fixed it up. The next release of digikam will not need qtav and therefore I will no longer be maintaining qtav. The only other usage in Debian I can find is "matrix-mirage" (which is itself orphaned). My suggestion is to simply remove qtav from Debian. If you do need qtav for some other purpose, please respond here and consider yourself the new maintainer.

kdevelop cannot run lldb-mi
Hello, I'm trying to debug within KDevelop. When I select to debug a binary, KDevelop shows a big error message "Could not start debugger. Could not run 'lldb-mi'. Make sure that the path name is specified correctly". I can manually configure to use GDB instead of LLDB. But supposing I want to use LLDB -- what do I need to do? Oddly: the llvm-toolchain-nn changelog states that "lldb-mi" was removed in August 2019. But if so: why does KDevelop continue to use it? Elsewhere on the web, I can see that others are still using lldb-mi [1] -- is the removal a Debian thing? If so, what is the Debian thing needed for kdevelop? Thanks! -Steve [1] https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/rfiwh4/ kdevelop_debug_could_not_run_lldbmi/ - signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
qtpaths -- is it expected to work?
Hi, I'm maintaining digikam for Debian and -- due to ffmpeg issues -- trying to help out with upstream development. The digikam setup script uses the commands: QT_INSTALL_PREFIX=`qtpaths --install-prefix` QT_PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR=`qtpaths --plugin-dir` Currently both fail (on Debian unstable) with: qtpaths: could not find a Qt installation of '' In light of Bug #1011935 ("QtChooser is dead by choice upstream, no Qt6 Support"), I'm unsure if this is expected to work or not. It looks like qtchooser does know about the versions installed: $ qtchooser --list-versions 4 5 default qt4-x86_64-linux-gnu qt4 qt5-x86_64-linux-gnu qt5 I thought I might be able to force a selection using the QT_SELECT variable, but it just changes to a different error: $ QT_SELECT=qt5 qtpaths --install-prefix qtpaths: could not exec '/usr/lib/qt5/bin/qtpaths': No such file or directory Thanks, -Steve P.S.

Handling symbols file
Hi, I've uploaded exiv2 to experimental and many builds failed due to changed symbols. Is this the up-to-date explanation for symbols files: https://qt-kde-team.pages.debian.net/symbolfiles.html ? I don't see explicit details on what to do with all the architecture-specific diff files. Help! Thanks, -Steve signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
