this week in fedora (2018w18)
This week was kind of busy - there are two new packages, compilation fixes for
some older elementary packages, a bugfix update for the gala
window manager,
and the latest state of the gsignond
packages to fix issues on fedora 28+.
fedora updates
I built two new packages after they went through the review process -
golang-github-syncthing-notify
is needed for updating syncthing
to version
0.14.47
, and editorconfig
will be a dependency of scratch-text-editor
/
elementary-code
with the upcoming release.

I’ve also backported upstream fixes for pantheon-terminal
, noise
, and
maya-calendar
to fix compilation of those packages on fedora 28+.

I updated gala
to a snapshot of the latest upstream git master branch, which
includes some small bug fixes. However, the build for fedora rawhide is missing,
since gala
isn’t yet compatible with mutter
from the 3.29
series.

I’ve updated gsignond
to the latest upstream version, which was releases just
a few days ago. This release contains fixes that allow building this package on
fedora 28+ again, which is why I’ve pushed the build of gsignond
and all its
dependent packages to fedora 28, too. However, builds for rawhide are still
missing, since the meson
update to 0.46
seems to have broken the builds
there.

COPR updates
I also applied the patch for the pantheon-terminal
package in fedora to the
elementary-terminal
package in the elementary-nightly
COPR repository to fix
the builds on fedora 28+ there, too.
