I was on +1 this week. I focused exclusively on the ffmpeg transition. Thanks to William Wilson and Brian Murray for retest, rebuild, and sponsored uploads.
##### xpra (LP: #1982418) ###### Upstream had fixes for FFMPEG 5 compatability across a few commits. Cherry pick relevant stuff, upload by way of sponsor. Patch forwarded to Debian. ##### xmms2-plugin-avcodec (LP: #1982419) ##### Upstream had a straightforward single commit. Cherry pick, debdiff in sponsor queue. Patch forwarded to Debian. ##### vtk7 (LP: #1982514) ##### vtk7 is sadly quite behind upstream, and attempting to merge individual fixes is not at all clear that it will be correct. I did my work the same time Peter Green was doing so for Debian, and came to the same conclusion. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1004793#23 Not entirely sure what to do next. Simply grabbing the latest version of ffmpeg-affected source files and dropping it into the codebase does build. ##### unpaper (LP: #1982594) ##### A newer version of unpaper is in the deferred queue currently and does build for Kinetic and Sid. I suggest we sync that, when available. ##### shotdetect (LP: #1982598) ##### The fixes for FFMPEG 5 look non-trivial and upstream doesn't have this implemented yet. No rdeps on shotdetect outside of a suggests on a metapackage, possibly should remove shotdetect. ##### retroarch (LP: #1982606) ##### Upstream is quite active and the upstream version has a fix, but the changes aren't even close to applying to the codebase in the archive. "Fixed" by disabling FFMPEG usage. Affected functionality listed here: https://docs.libretro.com/library/ffmpeg/ Uploaded by way of sponsor. ##### qtox ##### Builds fine, fails in autopkgtest due to needing another package from proposed. Moved onward with an extra trigger on chromaprint. ##### pqiv (LP: #1982779) ##### Just needed rebuild. Upload by way of sponsor. ##### performous (LP: #1982781, LP: #1982860) ##### While there is a version in experimental, it isn't required to get this to build with FFMPEG 5. Cherry-picked a commit from upstream and extended it just a little to get this buildinging. Also needed a ppc64el fix https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/performous/-/merge_requests/1 Uploaded by way of sponsor, patch for the FFMPEG part forwarded to Debian. ##### motion (LP: #1982886) ##### Backported commit, in sponsor queue, forwarded to Debian. ##### minidlna (LP: #1982890) ##### Just needs no change rebuild. In sponsor queue. ##### RISC-V rebuilds ##### A few packages built fine, except for some temporary non-availability of the new FFMPEG packages in proposed for RISC-V. On rebuild they were fine. * loudgain * lynkeos.app * mediastreamer2 * mgba * moc * mpv ##### brief looks ##### * mplayer - upstream 1.5 version has support for ffmpeg 5 * octave-video (LP: #1982875) Not able to find any work upstream on a transition. * olive-editor (LP: #1982869) Upstream is focused on a new 0.2 version, which looks like it would be fine with FFMPEG 5. * lives - Upstream is aware but a compatible version is not yet ready. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1013421 * qtav (LP: #1982609) Upstream work started upstream on FFMPEG 5. * openboard (LP: #1982784) Builds with upstream PR, which is not yet merged. At quick glance, PR looks similar to what other projects are doing. -Dan -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
