Hey folks,
As part of the work to upgrade to KDE Plasma 6, appstream is being
upgraded to a snapshot release as 1.0.0 is arriving soon. There are
some consequences for this change:
* appstream has gone through an API/ABI breakage, and consumers will
need to adapt
* appstream-data needs to move its content from
/usr/share/app-info/{xmls,icons} to /usr/share/swcatalog/{xml,icons}
* Direct consumers of the C API will need to make changes to support
appstream 1.0
* Consumers of the Qt bindings moving to Qt6 will need to make changes
to support appstream 1.0
* Consumers of the Qt5 bindings will need to build against
appstream0.16-qt-devel
I've built appstream in a side-tag, and I'd appreciate it if folks
could help by adapting their packages and submitting builds into it.
This can be done with the following command: fedpkg build
--target=f40-build-side-76936
My simple query of the consumers of the libraries in question resulted in this:
ngompa@fedora ~> sudo dnf repoquery -q --whatrequires
"libappstream.so.4()(64bit)" --qf "%{SOURCE_NAME}"
appstream
appstream-generator
flatpak
gnome-software
libadwaita
malcontent
I've handled appstream, appstream-generator, and appstream-data already.
* Flatpak has an upstream change that needs backporting[1] or a new release.
* GNOME Software has a merge request open[2].
* libadwaita has an upstream change that needs backporting[3].
* malcontent needs work done.
Please address these ASAP in some meaningful way and submit the result
into the "f40-build-side-76936" side tag.
