Re: [kubuntu-devel] Re: telepathy-qt5 0.9.5
Looked today, all patches seem to have gone upstream except 04-force_PIC_QT5.patch Gustavo please send the PIC patch upstream or else add a comment to it why it shouldn't go upstream. Please close https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64636 David Edmundson says he'll make a new release tomorrow, with a bumped soversion due to an ABI change.

Re: libgit2
Just looking through upstream logs, this should be as simple as uploading libgit2-glib 0.22.0 and gitg 3.15.1 On Tue, Feb 17, 2015 at 2:06 AM, Harald Sitter apachelog...@ubuntu.com wrote: it would be very lovely if someone who's interested in gitg could have a look at transitioning libgit2 - libgit2-glib - gitg to libgit2 0.22. 0.21 apparently had stability problems in the editor kate so 0.22 is a minimum requirement there. cheers HS -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
Qt 5.4 QVariant change and module news
Qt 5.4 is now in vivid, powering Ubuntu Phone starting with devel image #102, Kubuntu's Plasma 5 and also the Unity 8 desktop preview. No app changes are generally needed, but there is a change in QVariant that may be relevant to C++ using apps. == QVariant change in Qt 5.4 == QVariant has changed a bit in Qt 5.4, although in a way that fixing its use does not affect negatively use in Qt 5.3 either. Quote: ”When a JavaScript object/array is passed to C++ through a QVariant, the engine no longer immediately converts the object recursively into a QVariantMap or QVariantList but instead stores a QJSValue in the QVariant. This prevents a loss of data when the JS object contains non-primitive types such as function objects for example. Code that expects the variant type to be exactly QVariant::Map or QVariant::List may need to be adapted. Registered conversion functions however ensure that code that merely calls toMap() or toList() continues to work.” [QTBUG-40431] Examples of fixes: - Oxide: https://code.launchpad.net/~aacid/oxide/qt54_variantjs/+merge/248765 - Ubuntu UI Toolkit: https://code.launchpad.net/~aacid/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/statesaver_54/+merge/247986 Another noted small difference: ”In Qt 5.4 an alias to a null variable is correctly null instead of undefined like it was in Qt 5.3” == Status of less supported Qt modules == It's useful to remember that not all of Qt we have in Ubuntu is supported by the Qt Project: - qtlocation: Upstream releases this as part of their releases, but they emphasize that Qt Positioning is API stable while Qt Location might change. Still, this should be pretty safe to use and will probably be declared stable soon. - qt3d: The original module has not been developed for two years. A complete rewrite has been in development during that time. Qt 3D 2.0 will be available as a preview with Qt 5.5. - qtsystems: Semi-active development. Qt 5.4 absorbed QStorageInfo to be official part of qtbase, but it is a bit different and oddly does not have QML support at this point. We include the SystemInfo module on the phone images, but currently not the Publish Subscribe or Service Framework modules from the same source. - qtpim: Semi-active development, but can be considered supported since our Renato is one of the upstream developers. Ubuntu uses the Contacts/Organizer extensively in phone/scheduling apps. - qtfeedback: Stable in the sense that there is no development happening. It's also a very small module. If you are interested in the module, consider taking an active role in the Qt Project where contributions would surely be welcome. -Timo -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
libgit2
it would be very lovely if someone who's interested in gitg could have a look at transitioning libgit2 - libgit2-glib - gitg to libgit2 0.22. 0.21 apparently had stability problems in the editor kate so 0.22 is a minimum requirement there. cheers HS -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
