Roll call +alexxy, creffett, dilfridge, johu, kensington, reavertm + +Welcome new developers kensington and creffett. Thanks to JoseJX for +participating as member of the powerpc team. + +2. Add LINGUAS support to cmake-utils.eclass +Agreed to add a loop like that in qt4-r2.eclass to reduce ebuild code. It +expands the contents of LANGS to IUSE as linguas_*. A generic linguas handling +is not planed yet. + +3. Live KDE ebuilds have tests restricted +The usefulness of tests on live ebuilds was brought into question, since there +are enough problems with tests on normal releases. Agreed to enable tests when +I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING is set. + +4. KDE 4.8 stabilization and PowerPC +The stabilization and keywording was pending up to the team meeting date, +because of gcc47 as requirement to restore the keywords on ppc/ppc64. This +blocker was mistaken added. PowerPC needs just Qt 4.8.1 to keyword KDE 4.8. +So there are no reasons the discuss to drop the ppc support from kde-base. +We never stabilized a KDE version on ppc64, because ppc64 has problems with +the size of the table of contents for ELF function calls that will be fixed +with gcc 4.7. johu ask for voting on dropping ppc64 at all. No real +majority/opinions about it. JoseJX prefers that ~ppc64 not be dropped from KDE +keywords. Agreed that JoseJX would keyword ~ppc, and if there were no problems +would also keyword ~ppc64, topic will be revisited. + +5. Bugs +* Trying to change full name in KDE System Settings results in error or crash +https://bugs.gentoo.org/380899 +There is an existing workaround to disable the change full name functionality. +kensington will talk to upstream about the issue, and if there is no good +response in 2 weeks' time, we will apply the workaround. + +* app-cdr/k3b: use media-libs/musicbrainz:3 instead of :1 +https://bugs.gentoo.org/410347 +Agreed that musicbrainz:1 is obsolete and that k3b does not appear to actually +use musicbrainz even when enabled. Dependency on musicbrainz will be dropped. + +* dev-util/cmake: FindPythonLibs behaviour broken by Gentoo patches +https://bugs.gentoo.org/405181 +Dilfridge said that we should remove the patches and use command-line defines +to force specific python versions, agreed to test that. + +* kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.9.0 and kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.8_p20110714 +wrong doc dir specified - https://bugs.gentoo.org/410139 +Nobody has been able to reproduce the bug. Dilfridge suggested asking for more +information and will investigate further. + +* kde-misc/interceptor - KDE4 Plasmoid - intercept (catch) the log info from +the syslog - https://bugs.gentoo.org/383733 +creffett suggested dropping this request because it requires too many big +configuration changes for a plasmoid. Agreed to remove kde from CC list and +suggest taking the ebuild to sunrise. + +* dev-util/cmake-2.8.6-r4 - stop Xvfb after failed test phase +https://bugs.gentoo.org/406353 +Need input from gentoo-portage team about what phase could be used to clean up +xvfb after test failures. Kensington mentioned that the same issue will affect +virtualdbus. + +6. Open Floor +* KDE 4.9 Beta +Dilfridge reported that KDE 4.9 beta is coming out soon. + +* Groupdav calendar bug in kdepim-runtime +Discussed whether to stabilize kdepim-runtime base version or -r2, which has a +possible fix for https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415401 but no +positive feedback. Agreed to go with -r2. + +* creffett away +creffett will be out for a month on a trip with little internet access. |
