http://cruxbrianlfs.org/ports/ <- people try using repos like these, ignoring all the updated stuff in opt/contrib and wonder why they get a fucked system
<beerman>
we should put a warning up above the portdb
<beerman>
this particular example: pulseaudio version 12.2, pulseaudio-32 13.0, despite the fact that those ports are at v15 both in opt and compat-32
<beerman>
some repos, imho, should be deleted completely from the search
<SiFuh_>
ports -u could have the warning. 'WARNING REPO OLDER THAN blah blah DAYS' or something
<Romster>

I keep having to move between tasks anyway

i wondered earlier, do you know if mate actually still needs gtk2 around?
<beerman>
mate-desktop still depends on it
<jaeger>
Last time I checked it still did, yes... but I don't recall exactly which pieces. That was 1.24, haven't rechecked since 1.26 came out
<beerman>
my curiosity is based on gtk2 has no wayland support at all, gtk3+qt5 upwards is a safe call however
<jaeger>
A quick look with ldd suggests it's not required but I'll try a full build in a container to test
<beerman>
and in regards to wayland: what would be your prefered tactic to go with it? change stuff for 3.7 or inbetween 3.6? people wouldn't notice it and the sooner i can offload a couple of ports from my overlay the happier i am :D

https://crux.nu/gitweb/?p=ports/opt.git;a=blob;f=gst-plugins-base/Pkgfile;h=632e661a045fb190dc22459b02927cefce860f8a;hb=5fef93b0a41eddd25baecd3bacdea2d7e39dda9d romster already took gst-plugins-base and even made x11 optional
<jaeger>
If it doesn't break things I don't care... but we should probably start looking at a 3.7 sometime soon
<beerman>
i'd love to start playing with a more recent toolchain, things should be mostly fine by now. if you don't have objections then i might prepare a 3.7 branch in core sometime in the near future
<jaeger>
I'd also like to explore a bit more the LC_ALL stuff in pkgmk... and we'll probably need to anyway to do toolchain updates
<jaeger>
gcc was one of the archives that chokes bsdtar
<jaeger>
Ran into it when trying to update the mingw toolchain as well
<beerman>
wayland check, sounds perfect. i decided for myself so far that its easier to always build x11 support as a default, and then add wayland if you want to. everything else quickly becomes a struggle to do just right
<beerman>
LC_ALL might be overkill though, right?
<stenur>
like is said POSIX.utf8 still broken in glibc 2.34
<stenur>
Ditto C.UTF-8
<stenur>
(that is, localedef -i C -f UTF-8 C.UTF-8 .. is not supported at all)
<beerman>
and indeed is. LC_CTYPE='en_GB.UTF-8' for example works fine
