Hi All, Qt 5.0 was released a month ago. And I have two major questions about the future of the QtWebKit trunk (svn.webkit.org) development.
Question no 1: --------------- There is a plan about migration from GStreamer 0.1 to 1.0: [webkit-dev] PSA: Migration plan to GStreamer 1.x http://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2013-January/023244.html ( https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106085 ) Now we have Debian Squeeze, Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 buildbots too, but installing GStreamer 1.0 to Debian Squeeze and Ubuntu 11.10 is a little bit complex. It is possible, but installing a meta package from a PPA on Ubuntu 12.04 is much more simpler. That's why I propose switching QtWebKit buildbots to Ubuntu 12.04 (LTS) and dropping trunk buildbot support for older distros. (Or should we upgrade to non-LTS, but newer Ubuntu 12.10? I haven't tested it yet.) Any opinions/objections? Question no 2: --------------- Which Qt version / revision should we use for WebKit trunk? We always use build-qt5.sh script to build Qt for WebKit trunk to reduce source incompatible changes and make it simple to have same environment to reproduce bugs, etc. ( https://github.com/ossy-szeged/qt5-tools ) But now we are pinned on a very old, pre Qt 5.0 revision: 8d77ff1ef2422259dd6baed5cae9815260e5bee2 (Tue Dec 4 11:54:27 2012 +0100) I think it's time to update Qt on the bots/developers machines. So the question is which Qt revision should we update to? - Qt 5.0.0 release version? (I tested it on Linux, and works fine) - Or trunk qt5.git? (I haven't tested it yet.) And then should we do regular weekly/mothly update again? Or should we do updates on demand only? br, Ossy _______________________________________________ webkit-qt mailing list [email protected] http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-qt
