Expected fallouts: - Evolution API changes: anything building against evolution in TW is likely to break.
Who does that?
There are some packages doing such nasty things, like: planner, tasks, gnome-phone-manager... and that's the ones I can come up with without thinking :)
Can't we suck these packages into TW as well, to fix the ABI change?
- glib did not have too intrusive changes, but it might still have a few fallouts (API strictness)
Hm, hopefully this will not be an issue, but this is scary.
glib 2.32 was much more of a pain here, as that was when the 'only the main header can be included' switch entered it.. I guess for most in TW it should be safe to go higher now (2.32 was integrated in 12.2 already)
Ah, good, that doesn't sound bad.
- Not unlikely, other things have API changes which I do not remember about and am not fully aware of other things linking to it...
If there is anything I can verify for you, please let me know.
Thanks for doing this. When I get back from LinuxCon next week, I'll take a look at integrating this into Tumbleweed.
Oh, a list of the packages and repos that are needed to link to, would be the best thing, so I don't have to dig it out "manually" from your repo. Do you have that listed somewhere?
The easiest is probably to link those packages from GNOME:STABLE:3.6... They are mostly a collection of packages from GNOME:Factory and GNOME:Apps, but without some of the scarier changes enabled (and tested against 12.2). The packages are: PKGLIST=$(osc ls home:dimstar:GS36); :) but you knew that.
Ok, thanks, I'll just pull from GS36, that's good to know you linked directly to them. Thanks for doing this work and testing, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
