Description Anton Bolshakov 2019-02-17 08:00:14 UTC
Gentoo uses a forked version of this software, however the original upstream has a more recent version:

https://github.com/Simsys/qhexedit2/releases

P.S. qhexedit2 required by sqlitebrowser but I'm not sure if they are compatible.
Comment 1 Victor Kustov 2019-02-21 20:33:57 UTC
A PR (https://github.com/Simsys/qhexedit2/pull/107) has been prepared, after which the lancos/qhexedit2 fork will not be needed and sqlitebrowser and ponyprog will work well with the new version. If possible, try building sqlitebrowser from https://github.com/ktrace/qhexedit2.

Ping.
Comment 3 Martin Gysel (bearsh) 2020-02-15 12:08:34 UTC
I propose to switch back to upstream's version of qhexedit2 (and enable more recent python versions). ponyprog can either be pinned to <=qhexedit2-0.8.4_p20170719 or the bundled and modified version of qhexedit2 should be used, which gets statically linked...

Please note on the upstream comment:
https://github.com/sqlitebrowser/sqlitebrowser/issues/2134

They do not require bundled libraries and it is possible to disable it.

I was talking about ponyprog not sqlitebrowser. ponyprog's author modified qhexedit2. atm that modified version is in tree but behind upstream. there was an attempt to merge these modifications but it seems to be stalled...

I suppose this can be closed now:

no. This is still a forked version released back in 2017.
0.8.6 was released in 2019.

patched version yes, but based on upstream's 0.8.6 release, see EGIT_COMMIT which points to https://github.com/lancos/qhexedit2/commit/ba5af8616b3a6c916e718914225a483267c01356

but yes, I'm also for switching to Simsys...

Lancos rebase his fork on 0.8.6 of simsys/qhexedit2, released in 2019 and put on top two commits, so Martin is right.

After my PR https://github.com/Simsys/qhexedit2/pull/107 Claudio's features will be accepted in upstream.
