There has been a slight change of plans: Due to personal time constraints I have already created the side tags, and pushed all builds today. Everything except the five affected applications has already been built. This gives their maintainers even more time to test and submit changes before I must merge the side tags. In addition, the following packages have not been completely ported to the new libraries from gtk-rs 0.15 yet, and will be retired once the side tags are merged: - rust-javascriptcore-rs - rust-javascriptcore-rs-sys - rust-msgbox - rust-ostree - rust-ostree-sys - rust-webkit2gtk - rust-webkit2gtk-sys The Rust OSTree bindings have always been unused, so they can be retired without issue. The WebKitGTK and WebKitGTK-JSC bindings are currently only used by newsflash, but it has already switched to different crates in its development branch (targeting bindings for GTK4-based WebKitGTK instead), so I will retire those four packages as well. msgbox is stuck at using very very old versions of the gtk-rs bindings, and it is also unused, and will be retired, too. Only the five gtk-rs applications still need to be built and / or updated. If you maintain one of these applications and have a working build, please submit builds to the two side tags at any time this week: - f37-build-side-50703 - f36-build-side-50705 The COPR where I ran test builds of the entire stack is also public and can be used for test builds against gtk-rs 0.15: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/decathorpe/gtk-rs-0.15/monitor/ You can use those builds for local mock builds as well, either with: $ copr-cli mock-config decathorpe/gtk-rs-0.15 fedora-rawhide-x86_64 > foo.cfg I have enabled all chroots that are available natively (so only no armv7hl and i686). Alternatively, you can use the cfg file I generated and slightly modified (for the fedora-rawhide-x86_64 chroot): https://gist.github.com/decathorpe/bc14ce7940d6444570644e75e242fc94 If you need to run a test build for those two architectures as well, you can submit koji scratch builds against one of the side tags: $ koji build --scratch f37-build-side-50703 ./path-to.src.rpm I will leave the side tags open until Sunday, two days before the beta freeze goes into effect. Note that if an updated build of any of the five affected applications is not available at that point, it will not be a big problem, either: Since Rust applications are statically linked, they will continue to be installable and work fine. They will just be temporarily unable to be built, until they are ported to the new library versions.
