Title: Beware of some fallout in the next few days - Qt 5.7.1 transition started
Post by: melmarker on 2016/11/01, 17:19:51
As the topic said, the Qt 5.7.1 transision has started and the first packages will hit sid soon - so please be carefull.

It will take slightly more packages with it in a KDE installation:

Be careful anyway ´til 05.11.2016, this is the next freeze.

5. November is only the start of the transition freeze, soft freeze (no new packages, no re-entry, 10-day migrations) starts on 5. Jan. and full freeze on 5. Feb. 2017.

Additional - planned and acked ongoing transitions are allowed after 2016/11/05 - so this date don't mean: "Fine, i can hit <Enter> without thinking until freeze is over" - transition freeze means only that there will be no new packages that introduce abi or api changes. Also normal dependencies can and will break things

This evening d-u succeeded without any package removals!
But: Login by sddm not possible, login mask disappeared, KDE Plasma not usable

Yes, no packages to remove does not mean there is no breakage.
So the warning is still up!

"He's dead, Jim!"

okay, that's what test machines can do for us:
At least after a "dpkg-reconfigure plasma-desktop" I got to the point that the splash screen freezes.
only yakuake still works, but I couldn't start any other graphical apps.

Everything works ...  but, no taskbar, quicklaunch

conky and wbar on the desktop, I pretty much open everything with wbar, (konq, dolphin, firefox, thunderbird, mythtv, amarok, systemsettings) no problems with yakuake

The problem is that a lot of qt5-packages are already on v. 5.7.1-206110-21-n (where n is 2, 4 or 5). But not all qt5-packages are on that version yet. Specialy the qml-related ones are not. You can check with
Code: [Select]
dpkg -l | grep qt5 A solution would be to downgrade all packages with  5.7.1-206110-21-n (where n is 2, 4 or 5) to testing or just wait it out (which could be a few days).

Missed the warnings after being away for a week so, yesterday, ended up with a box that froze on desktop start up.

d-u today seems to have solved the problem for me

Same here. Missed the warning but with today dist-upgrade everything seems to be ok again.

A lot of talk about KDE here, nothing wrong with that but is it ok to d-u xfce now?

I have one package that will be removed, libqt5xdg1, it has been the same the last days, same package to be removed.

I can't confirm this. My testsystem (paintitblack plain install, only d-u, no further usage) shows no window decoration. My notebook with intel onboard-graphics still freezes, crashes and now a black screen after starting plasma. My main desktop hasn't been upgraded since two weeks to preserve one working system. I'm little bit unhappy with the current situation...
Title: Re: Beware of some fallout in the next few days - Qt 5.7.1 transition started
Post by: devil on 2016/11/07, 22:42:59
The situation has been resolved. You need to dist-upgrade. If you have libqt5qml5 version 5.7.1~20161021-5 available, you are fine. If not, your mirror is slow.

Thanks devil,

my last d-u on the notebook was yesterday evening. Now the plasma desktop is back with d-u five minutes ago. But my testsystems has still no window decoration.

Than that would be a seperate issue. Is kwin-x11 installed? Does installing kde-standard do anything?

Two days ago SDDM broke and I couldn't get into KDE. After yesterday's du, everything is working great again.  Are we still needing to watch for the qt transition?

ALL software is buggy - You have only not discovered the disaster up to now  8)

Nevertheless I'm happy that my system is booting and running after the upgrade

Before an d-u I always make a complete backup.......

@Devil


Thanks again. kwin-x11 and some dependencies were missing.


I don't understand why it is not a dependency to kde-standard, but I bet there will be a beautiful mind to tell why I'm wrong.

Thats easy - nothin depend on kwin-x11 | kwin - so you can happily purge it or loose it while upgrading the machine. That's all, nothing to see ...

no - it isn't so obvious - kwin-x11 | kwin means that there are a few packages that are (or at least should be) interchangable. And debian install with recommends, so a package that provide kwin should be installed if one install plasma-desktop. That make changes less painfull.

But it might be painful for users if the package is removed by a transition and $user don't notice it. Thats the funny thing about sid. Things can and will break, that will never happend in a stable environment.

What is the current status here? Can this be marked as "Done"?

I was checking https://release.debian.org/transitions/ (https://release.debian.org/transitions/) but couldn't find something.

But in my current setup a du would case to remove libmovit4 libqt5xdg1 texlive-math-extra.

He' showing that he let all of those go, so it should be safe to do the same.  (I know that tetex-math-extra has been incorporated in a different package.)

buhtz, I really didn't know I had to spell it out with 2 of the packages listed giving the results of

Installed: (none)
Candidate: (none)


In the future, if you see the no candidate, it means it doesn't exist in debian sid (could be a name change, could be joined in a meta package)
