What will be the procedure if we ever need to add a dependency now? With Docker it was easy because we could just edit the Dockerfile. What will be the equivalent? On Sat, Jun 28, 2025 at 1:23 PM Ben Cooksley wrote: > Hi all, > > As part of our transition to VM based CI, i'm about to start cutti

I've disabled kdeconnect macOS builds for the release branch. I wonder if there's a way to never build macOS builds from release branches for KDE Connect, to save CI resources? We don't make releases from them (we point macOS users to download builds from master directly) so those builds are never

Re: Migrating Windows CI to Qt 6.7 - Roadblocks

I created a task for KDE Connect to not require DBus on Windows/MacOS [1]. I agree using DBus is not great, but it's not an easy change to make and we have a total of zero developers on those platforms. [1] https://invent.kde.org/network/kdeconnect-meta/-/issues/23

+1 Every time I use a KDE app on Gnome I get those unusable black-on-black icons or some other visual issues. Even if this is because Gnome doesn't follow some XDG spec we use, if we can provide a workaround for Windows we should be able to provide a workaround in Gnome.

Re: Should we stop distributing source tarballs?

2024-04-05 Thread Albert Vaca Cintora
It seems a lot of people feel conservative in favor of tarballs, so maybe I aimed too far. At least I think the discussion brought some interesting points that we can explore further. Some I identified: - The tarballs should contain no changes with respect to git, or minimal changes obviously just

Should we stop distributing source tarballs?

2024-04-04 Thread Albert Vaca Cintora
Hi KDE folks, The recent xz backdoor scandal made me realize how bad and obsolete distributing tarballs is. The source of truth for our code are the repositories, and releases can simply be tags on those repos. As a big free software community, I think we should lead by example and get rid of tar

How to prevent users from opening GitLab issues?

As we transition to Gitlab, our users find two different ways of reporting issues: in Bugzilla and in Gitlab. Since we don't have plans to deprecate bugzilla, is there any way we can disable issues in Gitlab? Albert

I don't think that having "descriptive documentation" (more about this later) is that important nowadays, and IMO users will likely google for help way before they use the help button when they find issues. Since most people I talked to in Randa agreed with me on this, I'm a bit surprised to find t
