that sounds good if it means we will get rid of the branch for good soon :-) Otherwise I think it would have been better to work on merging staging and core-updates and then use a feature branch. However I am a bit afraid of repercussions on core-updates (originally I had planned to first merge back staging into master, but somehow we ended up working on core-updates first...). I have no idea what is the ordering between packages in master, staging and core-updates - it may well be possible that some packages are newer in staging, others in core-updates. Or that they are the same in both, but with different patches. For instance, I also updated qt to 5.15.8 on core-updates, but differently, using a global version variable for making sure to update everything at once. I think this is preferable. In any case, merging this will be a bit difficult to sort out without mixing bits from the two parts. So it would be nice if you could carefully merge master into core-updates after the staging merge. A typo in the title confused me, but it is gstreamer@1.22.1 instead of @2.22, which is hopefully less of a change ;-) Concerning ffmpeg, we now have 5 different versions of it; @2, @3 and @5 have almost no dependents, @4 and @6 have many. It would be nice to sort this out later and hopefully drop most of them. Andreas
