Remaining items for closing qt 5.15 migration

h-vetinari commented 1 year ago

Since there was no consensus about closing the PRs on abandoned feedstocks in the k*-ecosystem (see here), here's a manual list of the remaining to-dos before closing the qt 5.15 migration.

Status of remaining qt 5.15 PRs

(almost everything shows up in the migrator status; but I also double-checked with the recently much-improved GH search)

Ready to merge

[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/freecad-feedstock (already done even though it's listed as "waiting for parents")
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/pivy-feedstock (already done even though it's listed as "waiting for parents")
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/soqt-feedstock (already done even though it's listed as "bot error")
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/vitables-feedstock/pull/22

To do

[ ] https://github.com/conda-forge/gammaray-feedstock/pull/2 (apparently running into missing -fPIC of a binutils lib)
[ ] https://github.com/conda-forge/jkqtplotter-feedstock/pull/5 (looks like source incompatibility)
[ ] https://github.com/conda-forge/prismatic_split-feedstock/pull/33 (fails for win+CUDA)
[ ] https://github.com/conda-forge/py_entitymatching-feedstock/pull/6 (resolver errors due to restrictive pins)
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/qscreencast-feedstock/pull/12 (looks like missing only trivial recipe fixes)
[ ] https://github.com/conda-forge/zeit-feedstock (potentially, pending https://github.com/conda-forge/zeit-feedstock/issues/1)

Feedstocks that still pin to qt < 5.15

(sidenote: loving the new GH search functionality 🤩 )

[ ] pyqtads (this is the reason it's shown as not-solvable in the migration)

Abandoned / Obsolete Packages

[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/dioptas-feedstock/pull/18 (last update 3 years ago)
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/qtserialport-feedstock/pull/6 (still stuck on qt 5.9!)
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/lxqt-build-tools-feedstock/pull/6 (last update 3 years ago)
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/qwtpolar-feedstock/pull/13 (feedstock archived)
[x] https://github.com/conda-forge/tomviz-feedstock/pull/50 (still stuck on python 3.7)
[x] everything leading up to kdenlive (including PRs still listed as "waiting for parents"), see here:

All in all, it looks like there's barely a handful feedstocks left in order to be able to close this.

I am proposing we update the pinnings for now, and leave the migration open https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-pinning-feedstock/pull/4442

I'm not too sure about pyqtads. I remember I helped on that one due to it being stuck for some strange reason at the time.

I'm much in favour of updating the pinnings. I'd close the migration, as these packages are (with perhaps 2-3 exceptions) simply not being updated anymore. And as soon as someone picks them up again and rerenders, they get the new pinnings anyway.

That said, I don't really care if the migration stays open, as long as we can move forward (i.e. qt6 soon, as you mentioned in #4442).

Since i made the PR #4442 i had a chance to go through your notes more thoroughly, and they are quite complete. I think we should just merge and move forward. I'll close the migration in #4442
