I talked with upstream and they recommend to set 0.38.4
as default vala version, since it comes with many bugfixes.
UPDATE we already advertise 0.38.x
as default.
I have opened a pull request fixing this.
vala_0_23
:
ccnet
finalterm
also builds with 0.26, unmaintained there is also a fork but it does not buildgiv
gmpc
libappindicator
libindicate
libosinfo
libunity
also builds with 0.26, hideously outdatedmidori
also builds with 0.34seafile-shared
synapse
also builds with 0.34vala_0_26
:
vanubi
also builds with 0.28vala_0_28
:
shotwell
valum
vala_0_34
:
deepin-terminal
gencfsm
libskk
So now we have
vala_0_26
:
finalterm
libunity
vala_0_28
:
vanubi
vala_0_34
:
midori
synapse
allowing us to drop vala_0_23
.
If we want to get rid of more, we can move all of them to vala_0_26
.
Is libunity
still a thing? Did not ubuntu dropped unity
development?
I do not know, the last update was in 2012 and it does not seem to be used anywhere in nixpkgs, it is probably okay to drop it.
I would say it is safe to do so.
Actually, why not just change finalterm
and vanubi
to vala_0_38
and mark them with meta.broken = true
?
