Hi,

Servers have been restored and open-source downloads are working again.

Archive of old and historic releases is missing, but will be made available 
next week.

Blog post: https://www.qt.io/blog/open-source-downloads-working-again

Re: [Development] [Interest] download.qt.io is down

Thanks for highlighting this, Giuseppe!

The qt-downloader  has caught up
with the approach by introducing the --server option for this purpose. So
that users of this tool can mitigate the risks of the outage.

Re: [Development] Qt modules, API changes and Qt 6

Do I understand your proposals correctly:

Let’s say I make a change in qtdeclarative that depends on a merged change 
‘shaA' in qtbase and on ’shaB’ in qtsvg, then I add something like

dependencies: qtbase:shaA qtsvg:shaB

(or whatever syntax we want) to my qtdeclarative commit message?


yes.


As for the shadow branch(es) in qt5.git or progressively moving gerrit 
change(es):

* change shaX in qtbase merges, breaks qtdeclarative
* bot updates shadow-branch's .gitmodules to point at qtbase:shaX; it’s now 
inconsistent (qtdeclarative doesn’t build or pass tests)
* coin keeps testing qtdeclarative changes against qtbase:shaX~1 (as per 
upstream .gitmodules), changes that don’t depend on shaX merge
* follow-up change shaY in qtdeclarative is staged, with above annotation 
asking for qtbase:shaX
* coin tests qtdeclarative with shaY against qtbase:shaX, as per the shadow 
branch’s .gitmodules. Tests pass, shaY merges, .gitmodules in shadow branch is 
updated to point at qtdeclarative:shaY

Once the round is complete for all sub modules, the existing git submodule 
update process updates .gitmodules in the proper branch, and reset the 
shadow-branch (I suppose).

Was that the idea, Ossi?


i think so. ^^

It puts some extra burden on contributors and reviewers (add commit 
footer with correct sha1,


remember that this is only for the commits that explicitly ask for a dep 
update, and they currently do that by modifying the yaml file.



which will need some extra care when cherry-picking),

it would be rather exceptional if such a commit was ever backported, so 
no problem with that, either.


but it might be possible for Coin to try to move things  forward 
automatically, just as we do now with the dependency update bot.


yes, of course. the mechanism would stay almost identical, only the 
state would be keept in a different (more appropriate) place.

It belongs in dependencies.yaml,

that's just something you're postulating, completely ignoring the points

The online installer doesn't actually work because it will try and 
download the mirror list from the master, which is offline.


One can use https://github.com/miurahr/aqtinstall instead, which allows 
to manually specify the mirror, e.g.



python -m aqt --base https://ftp.fau.de/qtproject/ --outputdir /opt/qt/ 5.15.2

I try to imagine being of those spending hour after hour to get things
running again and then reading all those nasty comments on the blog post.

QTextBrowser derives from QTextEdit and therefore it’s API is inherently based 
around QTextDocument, QTextCursor, QTextCharFormat etc, which makes a 
source-compatible replacement based on litehtml unrealistic.

That said, moving the source out of Qt Creator makes it easier to extend and 
adapt it to different parties’ needs too.
