gnome 3.38 #24260

q66 · 2020-08-13T16:59:23Z

This should now be more or less ready. Tested on aarch64 and on ppc64le-musl. Several "unstable" versions were used, since 3.38 shipped with them (e.g. gnome-online-accounts, gnome-contacts and the gnome-flashback components), shouldn't be a practical problem and we can update them later once tagged.

TODO

clean it up
better testing, make sure testsuite passes
import the useful bits from gnome 3.36 updates #21382, or rebase if it gets merged
make sure crossbuilds work
test on more platforms
fix the metapackages (they haven't been touched, possibly in [RFC] Restructure GNOME metapackage #22936)
~~drop the vala option in the rest of the packages~~ probably gonna do that once this PR is merged

Stable updates

Merged

No updates

polari (no newer stable version)
gtk4 (no stable version yet)

as for the existing 3.36 PR you can go ahead with it or if you want to wait for this one i don't mind either way

Well, GNOME 3.38 is a month away from releasing, so why not ? 👍 ( Also, I'm afraid I won't get enough time to work on #21382).

But @sgn was working on fixing do_check()s and cross builds for some packages (especially the evolution* ones) , so I'll leave the PR open for now.

q66 · 2020-08-14T19:03:01Z

tests are now passing fully on the packages that have been touched, also did assorted minor tweaks

i've also taken the liberty to start dropping the vala option in templates and merge it back with gir; i've never been able to find a reason to split them in the first place, and splitting them is actively harmful with the current system, since vala always depends on gir; either way, there is not much of a reason to ever disable it

also, i decided against forcing having a do_check on things that are either problematic (like evolution-data-server) or require X11 - while we could hack around it with xvfb, as it is currently it's not worth it since it has to touch files outside the builddir, which we definitely want to avoid - plus it's a lot of boilerplate that could theoretically be avoided but we don't have the means of avoiding it right now (we'd need to add xvfb-run equivalent like some other distros have)

the latter two things will probably interest @sgn

I think this is a correct move. I split out vala because its dependencies also split vala out. It's better to merge all vala into gir.

How can I test this locally?

q66 · 2020-08-17T19:21:40Z

just fetch it, apply it in your tree, build it with xbps-src as usual, and test it?

shizonic · 2020-08-20T12:22:46Z

just fetch it, apply it in your tree, build it with xbps-src as usual, and test it?

I checked out this PR locally into a branch called gnome and built it successfully (every gnome related packages were updated to the version of this PR) but if I run xbps-install --repository hostdir/binpkgs gnome I get the message Package 'gnome' already installed.. What did I miss? Thank you so much for all your work I really appreciate it.

q66 · 2020-08-20T13:52:44Z

the metapackage is unchanged, you have to run like xbps-install -R hostdir/binpkgs -Su

Thank you so much it worked! :-) Awesome job man.

mutter with budgie-desktop is broken. Some component (I believe mutter itself) needs gsettings-desktop-schemas

q66 · 2020-08-22T17:45:27Z

it works after installing it?

toluschr · 2020-08-22T17:57:10Z

it works after installing it?

yes

toluschr · 2020-08-22T18:51:39Z

GNOME works too. However, I think gdm is a dependency of gnome-shell, as gnome didn't start without it.

(gnome-shell:1710): Gjs-CRITICAL **: 20:41:40.895: JS ERROR: Error: Requiring Gdm, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'Gdm' (any version) not found

q66 · 2020-08-22T19:03:37Z

ok, good to know - i already added the dependency to mutter, other distros already do so

q66 · 2020-08-24T10:00:23Z

as for gnome-shell depending on gdm, we can't do that since gdm already depends on gnome-shell (in particular, gnome-shell does depend on the gdm typelib file, but separating them wouldn't help either, since xbps-src checks dependencies of subpackages, so it'd create a build-time cycle - so, nothing we can do without making this unnecessarily complex)

shizonic · 2020-08-25T08:13:15Z

Do I have to rebuild every pkg if this PR gets updated? If not how do I manage to rebuild only the updated pkgs?

fosslinux · 2020-09-13T04:29:35Z

cross seems to be severely broken, just tried cross building for aarch64 and at least 3 packages failed, didn't try to get any further though

You probably already know this anyway.

q66 · 2020-09-13T12:13:07Z

what failed?

fosslinux · 2020-09-13T22:54:32Z

Away from home computer ATM but defiantly gsettings-desktop-schemas and I believe libsoup, I'll try again shortly.

shizonic · 2020-09-16T15:18:51Z

finally released: https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.38/ 👍

nuclearforg · 2020-09-16T20:31:31Z

libsoup fails because of a regression in brotli (google/brotli#836) and now sysprof has to be explicitly disabled with -Dsysprof=disabled

q66 · 2020-09-17T04:31:19Z

I restructured the metapackages; the following changes have been applied

gnome-core is a core distribution without applications that can be replaced
gnome is gnome-core plus core gnome applications that either don't take much space or are always useful (e.g. file-roller, evince, etc)
gnome-apps is an extra bundle of things which are either big or niche or will usually be replaced (e.h. epiphany, evolution, gnome-boxes and the like)

i removed the direct dependencies on the libraries, as that just hides messed up dependencies in the actual app/other packages, by installing them directly rather than being installed through the individual components

fosslinux · 2020-09-17T06:04:07Z

Will test shortly, thanks for all your work on this @q66!
