ELF Dissector in kdereview

By Volker Krause at 09/28/2019 - 07:01

Hi,

ELF Dissector has been moved to kdereview for the usual review process.

<a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/source/elf-dissector/" title="https://phabricator.kde.org/source/elf-dissector/">https://phabricator.kde.org/source/elf-dissector/</a>

ELF Dissector is a static analysis tool for ELF libraries and executables, for
doing things like inspecting forward and backward dependencies (on a library
or symbol level), identifying load-time performance bottlenecks such as
expensive static constructors or excessive relocations, or size profiling of
ELF files.

ELF Dissector has been living in playground for more than 6 years because I
was sloppy following the right process.

Binary Factory & CI System Maintenance

By Ben Cooksley at 09/16/2019 - 15:46

Hi all,

As part of changes to help improve the capacity, capability and
security of the Binary Factory and CI system, i'm going to be
performing a rebuild of several of the physical hosts responsible for
performing builds on the CI system.

Following these changes, signing operations for Flatpak and Android
builds will have been shifted away from the machines responsible for
handling the actual builds, and the system will have an additional
machine added to handle builds.

This will also pave the way for the build process for Snaps being
brought to the Binary Factory (although there are other

KF6 Sprint

By Volker Krause at 09/15/2019 - 07:14

Hi,

as you might have seen in David's summary of the KF6 BoF at Akademy (https://
mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-frameworks-devel/2019-September/093298.html),
there's the idea to have a KF6 sprint, along the lines of the KF5 sprint we
had in Randa a few years back, to determine what we actually want to achieve
with KF6 beyond just porting to Qt6.

If you are interested please subscribe to <a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T11535" title="https://phabricator.kde.org/T11535">https://phabricator.kde.org/T11535</a>
and indicate your interest to participate, as well as times that would work
for you.

Taking over maintainership of the kaccounts-* repos

By Bhushan Shah at 09/13/2019 - 04:21

Hello!

At akademy we talked about the KAccounts and realized that kaccounts is
unmaintained and/or Martin is not active.

So I propose to take over maintainership of the following repositories.

- kaccounts-integration
- kaccounts-providers
- kaccounts-mobile

If you have any concerns/objections with this, let me know.

Thanks

rekonq to unmaintained

By Harald Sitter at 09/12/2019 - 09:45

I'd like to suggest moving rekonq to unmaintained

Its master branch is still kdelibs4, the frameworks branch hasn't seen
any progress in 21 months. Hasn't had a release in years. Very
unmaintained all in all.

Any objections?

Ruqola in KDE-review

Hi,
I would like to move ruqola to extragear/network.
So I asked to sysadmin to move ruqola to kde-review (it was done).

Ben told me that this period will start in 2 weeks.

Minutes from the KF6 BoF session at Akademy

By David Faure at 09/10/2019 - 13:18

We discussed the topic of KF6, to have some sort of common direction.
When, what, how, etc.

Proposing Quick Charts as a new framework

By Arjen Hiemstra at 09/02/2019 - 06:10

Hi,

I have been working on a library the past few months that provides a
QtQuick
module for rendering gpu-accelerated charts. It currently lives in a
playground
repository, here: <a href="https://invent.kde.org/kde/kf5quickcharts" title="https://invent.kde.org/kde/kf5quickcharts">https://invent.kde.org/kde/kf5quickcharts</a> . I would
like for
this library to be included as a Tier 1 Framework.

Current features are that it supports rendering of three different chart
types:
pie, line and bar, which can be fed from multiple types of data sources.
There
is also support for axis labels, an axis grid and a legend.

We can't properly parse standard Desktop files

By Aleix Pol at 08/26/2019 - 11:02

Hey,
Last week I was debugging an issue where I realised that we were not
splitting properly a StringList field in a desktop file coming from
Flatpak.

I notice then that we are using a coma to split desktop files instead
of a ; as the standard requests.

The multiple values should be separated by a semicolon and the value
of the key may be optionally terminated by a semicolon. Trailing empty
strings must always be terminated with a semicolon.

Possible to move some KF5 frameworks to invent?

By Christoph Cullmann at 08/11/2019 - 06:33

Hi,

is it possible to move individual framework modules over to
invent.kde.org or will that be
done at once somewhen in the future?

Would be interested to move syntax-highlighting and ktexteditor if that
is possible.
But if that shall be done as bulk in the future I can wait ;=)

Issues with Jenkins Builds

By Ben Cooksley at 08/07/2019 - 06:11

Hi all,

Recently we were affected by a regression within Jenkins, the effect
of which meant that in some circumstances builds would not be
triggered when new commits were introduced.

In addition, the views showing the list of all builds would also not
show the last successfully completed build in some circumstances.

This fault has now been worked around on build.kde.org, and rebuilds
have been initiated of a number of jobs which have been identified as
either affected or potentially affected, which unfortunately will take
the better part of the next day or so for the system to process.

RFC: Deprecating KDesignerPlugin in favour of new ECMAddQtDesignerPlugin

By Friedrich W. H.... at 07/28/2019 - 18:04

Hi,

following up on a recent discussion about kdesignerplugin currently providing
a single Qt Designer plugin for all of those modules from KDE Frameworks which
provide custom QWidgets, and with this coupling running against the idea of
mpdularization with KDE Frameworks, a few patches have been sketched and made
working to approach this.

binary compatibility and qwidget::event

By Harald Sitter at 07/12/2019 - 05:14

Hey

our binary compatibility page [1] states that one should

the function is just calling the base class' implementation."

Does anyone know the reason this helps maintain BC?

Kdiff3 KIO handling

By Michael Reeves at 07/02/2019 - 11:34

I would like someone to audit the way kdiff3 uses KIO on remote files.
Specifically I am looking for anyway error/completion signals can be missed
causing an indefinite hang until the compare is canceled. Also any extra
work being done by kdiff3 that should be handed off to KIO. There should
also a working progress bar be it self implemented or provided by kf5/qt5.
This disabled due unspecified issues that encountered by the previous
maintainer while using fish protocol.

Tipping the apple cart?

By Valorie Zimmerman at 06/30/2019 - 17:53

Hello folks, as you know, I'm not a coder. However, I'm interested in our
code quality, and there has been some observation that "lots of patches get
missed, and submitters get confused due to a lack of auto-populated
reviewers" on Phabricator. Nate Graham has been adding groups to the
reviewers by hand, and would like to not do that any more.

However, many developers simply route all Phab emails to folders where they
sit unread, because Phab sends out an email for every event and comment!
This is far too spammy. In our move to Gitlab, we can do better.

Downtime Announcement: Transactional Email Infrastructure

By Ben Cooksley at 06/28/2019 - 19:52

Hi all,

We've been informed by one of our hosting providers that they need to

This will take place this coming Monday, from approximately 4pm UTC
for up to 4 hours.

As a result, transactional email services will be unavailable during
this time meaning email notifications from Bugzilla, Phabricator,
Gitlab, Jenkins and other services hosted on KDE Infrastructure will
be held and delivered once normal service has resumed.

IRC Bots supported by email notifications, including both commits and
bugs may also be impacted and will catchup

Maintenance status of KMid?

By Shinjo Park at 05/29/2019 - 18:02

Hi,

I'd llike to ask whether KMid is maintained or not:
- No release/significant commit since 2010
- Already mentioned as "unmaintained" in a bug 359424 [1]
- Still not migrated to git/KF5 yet

Maintainence status of Kooka?

By Adriaan de Groot at 05/26/2019 - 09:09

Kooka had its last release in 2011, as a KDE3 application. However, master is
a KF5-based application, with version number 0.90 in CMakeLists.txt. Is there
any intention to do a release? (That's mostly a question for Jonathan) We
revived it in FreeBSD packaging, calling current master 0.61.296 (from git
describe), but it feels a little weird to ship packages of unreleased
software.

Moving Konsole to Gitlab

By Tomaz Canabrava at 05/25/2019 - 07:10

People,

I'v talked to Kurt and Nate this week about my current frustrations with
Phabricator, last week I got a few important patches messed up in the way
that only phab can do for you. And we agreed that a move to Gitlab is
desired, I talke to ben about it and he made me aware that this can impact
KDE release schedule.

So, here I'm, I don't know what can happen if a kde-core app moves to
gitlab now, I know that most of the apps there are from extragear. Maybe
it's time to shift more projects to it.

I'm adding Albert as cc since I belive that he knows this more than I do.

Best,

Review Request: plasma-thunderbolt

By Daniel =?ISO-88... at 05/15/2019 - 09:27

Hi all,

plasma-thunderbolt is a new repo containing, you guessed it, Thunderbolt KCM
for Plasma. I initially submitted the code as a patch against plasma-desktop
[0], where it got reviewed, but it was ultimately decided to better put it
into a separate repository, since it's not just a KCM but also a library and a
KDED module.

PSA: Use newer add_test(NAME <n> COMMAND <c>), check CI, esp. with min ECM >=5.38

By Friedrich W. H.... at 04/29/2019 - 06:54

Hi,

tl:dr
In your CMake code replace all remaining
add_test(<n> <c>)
with
add_test(NAME <n> COMMAND <c>)
to make sure test executables are still found once you bump the minimum ECM
version required >= 5.38.
And check your product on KDE CI, where not found test executables are now
properly reported as failure (everything got already up-to-date builds with
that change, if part of groups "Frameworks", "Applications" or "Extragear").
At least one project missed to see some unit-test regression on released
versions due to test executables not found and not run, without being
reported

CI system maintainability

By Ben Cooksley at 03/28/2019 - 02:40

Hi all,

We currently have a rather substantial issue, in that the CI system
has been once again left in a position where it isn't possible to make
any changes to the system.

This means we can't update to newer versions of packages, add new
packages or correct for binary incompatible changes which periodically
get introduced to non-Frameworks.

This issue has arisen because currently we have a recurring failure to
build from source, within KDE PIM. Specifically, KContacts fails due
to broken CMake logic.

CVE-2019-7443 (kauth) in kdelibs

By Hugo Lefeuvre at 03/19/2019 - 06:39

Hi,

I'm Hugo Lefeuvre, from the Debian LTS team. I am currently working on
CVE-2019-7443 which appears to affect not only kauth but also kdelibs
since it ships a very similar kdecore/auth/backends/dbus/DBusHelperProxy.cpp
file[0].

As far as I am aware the fix for CVE-2019-7443 was not applied to
kdelibs. Is there a specific reason for that? Do you plan addressing this
potential vulnerability in kdelibs as well?

Fwd: freedesktop.org meeting again?

By David Faure at 02/09/2019 - 08:32

Is anyone interested in participating in a technical meeting with other
desktop environments?

I did that years ago and this is how we came up with various shared
specifications, but at this point it might be more useful for people working
on other things to attend.

Cheers,
David.

KDE's release script not functional on stable openSUSE

By Jaroslaw Staniek at 01/24/2019 - 06:28

Hi Jonathan,
The releaseme tools require ruby 2.3 while openSUSE 42.3 depends on 2.1.
And it lacks multiple ruby version support (no RVM).
After forcibly switching to ruby 2.3 or 2.4 openSUSE stops being functional
because yast (core admin tool) depends on ruby 2.1.
Releaseme worked *great* but I had to roll back to 2.1, making the OS again
not capable to develop KDE software releases I work on.

Upcoming Service Downtime

By Ben Cooksley at 01/11/2019 - 17:17

Hi all,

Sysadmin is currently in the process of planning server migrations for
a large number of services which have significant visibility, and
which are often substantially involved in the release process for
projects as well as general community operation.

As it may take several hours to perform these migrations, we are
asking people to please let us know when they are planning to do
things for the next month or so to allow us to schedule the migrations
accordingly.

Bugzilla Server Move

By Ben Cooksley at 01/09/2019 - 23:38

Hi all,

We've just completed the migration of Bugzilla from a previous system
to a newer system. While this hasn't changed Bugzilla itself much, it
did involve an update from Ubuntu 14.04 to Ubuntu 18.04.

From our testing everything appears to be operating correctly.

Should anyone see anything unusual or broken, please let Sysadmin know.

Thanks,
Ben

CI system disruption

By Ben Cooksley at 01/06/2019 - 05:14

Hi all,

Due to a massive translation change which took place in the last 24
hours, the CI system is currently in the process of rebuilding the
whole of KDE for all the platforms it covers (both branch sets)

This is a process that has already been underway for several hours,
and at this stage is expected to take several more. Normal CI service
will unfortunately be unavailable until this completes.

Unfortunately, as a matter of bad timing, the network card in one of
the main CI builders has also glitched and as a consequence is now
intermittent from time to time.
