Hello Rust packagers,
I have prepared an update of the entire GTK-RS stack to the latest version:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/decathorpe/gtk-rs-0.15/monitor/
I am planning to update these packages in Fedora Rawhide and 36, just
like GTK-RS 0.14 was only pushed to Fedora 35 and Rawhide half a year
ago.
The gstreamer-rs 0.18 updates are blocked by one missing package, I
would appreciate it if somebody could review it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2053892
The applications using gtk-rs in Fedora are:
- helvum (latest version is using gtk-rs 0.15)
- image-roll (unclear if upstream is working on a port to 0.15)
- newsflash (latest git is using gtk-rs 0.15)
- squeekboard (unclear, uses non-standard build system)
- system76-keyboard-configurator (latest git is using gtk-rs 0.15)
If you maintain one of these applications, please test building
against the updates I have prepared in COPR. There are also some
gtk-rs modules that are going to be retired:
- rust-soup-sys (dead upstream, was only kept alive downstream by me for F35)
- rust-webkit2gtk, rust-webkit2gtk-sys (dead upstream, dependencies
not ported to gtk-rs 0.15 yet)
- rust-msgbox (unused in Fedora, still uses very old gtk-rs versions)
- rust-ostree, rust-ostree-sys (unused in Fedora, not ported to gtk-rs 0.15 yet)
The removal of these 6 packages will only affect newsflash, but it has
already stopped using these crates in its development branch. I plan
to retire them once the other ~60 package updates have been built and
pushed successfully.
I plan to start submitting builds into side tags next week, probably
starting Feb. 18 or 19, so that all builds can be finished and the
side-tag-update pushed to stable in time before the beta freeze for
F36 goes into effect on Feb. 22. It would be great if maintainers of
dependent applications could have updates for their packages ready by
that point, so I can include them in the updates.

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.

Hi Fabio.
I have build rust-msgbox in the sidetag and made a pr to update msgbox upstream.
https://github.com/bekker/msgbox-rs/pull/21
I will need msgbox for a future package so please do not orphan it. For image-roll, i
cannot update it since it will need some code change to support rust-gtk 0.15. The new
version 1.5.0 need two new package also.

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

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

GTK4-based WebKitGTK instead), so I will retire those four
packages as

bindings, and it is also unused, and will be retired, too.

This is now done. The side tags have been merged into rawhide and f36.
Please submit further builds directly for rawhide and f36.
I have also retired all packages that have been dropped by upstream
and/or that are no longer useful and/or that have not been ported to
the latest version (i.e. the list posted in my last email, minus
msgbox, which has since been ported and updated). Let's hope that
releng can figure out how to properly retire packages again ;)
