Electing a new team leader + +nominees: +Accepted: dilfridge, johu +Refused: tampakrap, scarabeus + +results: +johu -> dilfridge +dilfridge -> johu +tampakrap -> dilfridge +alexxy -> dilfridge +mschiff -> dilfridge +scarabeus -> dilfridge +---------------------- +dilfridge:5 - johu:1 +---------------------- +dilfridge is the new KDE team leader with the majority of votes. +Congratulations!!! + +3. Dropping RPATH from installed binaries +Add a RPATH entry for every library dir that is not in the system library +directories in ld.conf are not automatically considered as system library +dirs, but only some static list of dirs. +Everyone agreed on RPATH removal. We will introduce a patch with KDE SC 4.8.2 +to remove the RPATH and move it to the main tree. + +4. Bugs +* Remove hard dep on media-libs/phonon from kde-base/kdelibs +https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356681 +https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=388041 +Upstream says "technically you can replace phonon with qt-phonon, but that's +just stupid because you lose functionality". Another argument against it, is +that qt-phonon will be removed with qt5. We wont fix the bug and keep phonon as +hard dep. johu will take care of the bug after meeting summary is available. + +* Eclass problem with handbook without LINGUAS. +https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372457 +The handbook eclass code is pretty confusing for all in meeting present +members. It was written by reavertm. We decided that we will mail reveartm to +fix handbook eclass code, because he has the most knowledge in it. dilfridge +will take care of contacting him, it's his first lead task. + +* Revise the change "semantic-desktop? -> semantic-desktop=". +https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396491 +Some packages rely on semantic-desktop capabilities in other ones. tampakrap +is volunteers to take care of the bug. + +5. Open floor +* KDE 4.8 stabilization +KWin does not build anymore without opengl support. kde-base/kmail-4.8.1 +crashes, but upstream patch can be backported. KDE SC 4.8.1 has tons of +bugfixes, compared to to 4.8.0. The majority votes for KDE 4.8.1 as stable +candidate. johu will prepare stabilization. + +* Test failures +creffett brought up dbus-related test failures. johu recommended to get +virtual-dbus eclass running. dilfridge suggested if one or two test fails +or restrict. The problems with virtual-dbus is that you can't run bash +commands in it's environment. creffett will be responsible for this. + +* New members +Welcome to three new members of the project: creffett, kensington and +dastergon. They are in the process to become gentoo developer and mentored by +tampakrap. creffett and kensington have already open 'new developer' bug. +dastergon doesn't have an open bug yet. + +* Comeback +scarabeus re-joined KDE herd. Welcome back!!! + +* Reduced work time +mschiff mentioned that he will not have much time for the KDE herd due to +real life priorities, he will be back in may. tampakrap will spent most of his +time for gentoo infra team. -- cgit v1.2.3-65-gdbad
