Dear Release team, Qt 5.15.19 is the last release of Qt 5. I have submitted a merge request with the ben file: https://salsa.debian.org/release-team/transition-data/-/merge_requests/69 The prepared packages also have the following fixes: - qtbase: Fix build with OpenSSL 4 (#1137599). - qtbase: Drop dependency on mysql-defaults (#1137755). - qtwebengine: Fix build with glibc 2.43 (#1128869). - qtwebengine: Stop building PDF packages (#1131703). The transition is prepared in experimental, ready to be uploaded to unstable. After we are done with this transition, I will focus on removing Qt 5 in favor of Qt 6.
Control: tags -1 confirmed Go ahead. Cheers, Emilio
Hi Emilio! Thank you. Qt 5.15.19 is uploaded and built on most architectures, only riscv64 is lagging behind a bit. I think you can schedule binNMUs with appropriate dep-waits, e.g. qtbase5-dev (>= 5.15.19).
I see a few reproducibility issues, see e.g. [1], [2], [3]. Not sure if there are others. Can you take a look? Cheers, Emilio [1] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/qtlocation-opensource-src [2] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/qt3d-opensource-src [3] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/qtdeclarative-opensource-src
Actually let's not touch those for this round, and given you said you'll work on removing Qt 5, it's probably not worth spending time on that anyway. Cheers, Emilio
OK, thank you. The qt3d issue looks like is gone after retry. The qtlocation one is really flaky tests, not a reproducibility issue. The only real remaining issue is in qtdeclarative, which seems to be a bug in qdoc. I will drop Qt 5 documentation packages at some point, so we only need to care about it if it still exists in Qt 6.
I needed quite some hints due to what looks like a britney issue when scheduling tests, but this has finally migrated. Closing. Cheers, Emilio
\o/ Thank you!
