Bug 686062 – sci-electronics/kicad-5.1.2 version bump

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Zakhar 2019-05-16 00:29:33 UTC]

Been 2 releases since initial 5.1.0 release. They contain critical fixes which are very important for kicad functionality likely why the 2 versions were released in such rapid succession.

Reproducible: Always

[Comment 1 Zakhar 2019-05-16 00:30:38 UTC]

This is for package sci-electronics/kicad

[Comment 2 Virgil Dupras (RETIRED) 2019-05-21 22:04:39 UTC]

Zoltan, are you still interested in maintaining this package?

[Comment 3 Zoltan Puskas 2019-05-22 07:05:47 UTC]

Apologies, I was out on holidays and returned just recently. I'll address the version bump tomorrow afternoon (PST).

[Comment 4 Zoltan Puskas 2019-05-23 08:11:49 UTC]

PR request: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/12088

Also please note that kicad-5.1.1 was never officially released due to serious bugs.

[Comment 5 David Flogeras 2019-05-23 08:19:14 UTC]

Thanks for this Zoltan, we appreciate your efforts!

I look forward to testing the 5.1 series.  As a side note, I think we should start looking towards a stable 5.  Recently I have used 5.0.x professionally to design and lay out a medium complexity board, and it was quite a step up from 4.x.  I only encountered one regression (which is impressive for a point-oh release), and it was corrected in 5.0.1.

[Comment 6 Virgil Dupras (RETIRED) 2019-05-23 18:20:09 UTC]

FYI: I'm working on a bump to wxPython 4 (it's in https://github.com/hsoft/portage-overlay/tree/master/dev-python/wxpython while it's a WIP). Once this is done, it should theoretically allow kicad to switch to wxGTK's "3.0-gtk3" slot as well as supporting python 3.

I don't know how fast the proxy-maint team will merge your PR, but if I'm faster than them, you might want to use this bump as an opportunity to bump the wxGTK/wxPython/python dep.

[Comment 7 Virgil Dupras (RETIRED) 2019-05-24 18:21:12 UTC]

wxpython 4.0.6 is freshly pushed and kicad gtk3/py3 builds and runs fine in local tests I've made.

[Comment 8 Zoltan Puskas 2019-05-26 21:33:59 UTC]

I will try the new wxpython on my box now. If it works for me too, I'll update the PR right away.

[Comment 9 Zoltan Puskas 2019-05-28 06:46:05 UTC]

I was not able to compile KiCAD with dev-python/wxpython:4.0 so far as it is missing the header file wxPython.h (and possibly others).

[Comment 10 Virgil Dupras (RETIRED) 2019-05-28 11:11:37 UTC]

I had a similar error and IIRC, that's because you didn't enable the PHOENIX flag in cmake.

[Comment 11 Zoltan Puskas 2019-05-30 08:01:50 UTC]

Thanks for the hint, that was the only missing flag. I've compiled it and it works properly, so I updated the PR and now KiCAD working with GTK3.

[Comment 12 Zakhar 2019-05-30 08:31:50 UTC]

Next kicad revision seems to be due in short order after a few critical bugs are remedied. Has many critical patches.

[Comment 13 Virgil Dupras (RETIRED) 2019-05-30 15:40:30 UTC]

proxy-maint: if you don't mind, I'll merge this. I use the app and I became familiar with its build system.

As for the upcoming upstream release, maybe we should wait a few days then? KiCAD being rather heavy to build, users might appreciate not having to rebuild 5.1.3 a few days after having rebuilt 5.1.2.

[Comment 14 Zoltan Puskas 2019-05-31 05:49:10 UTC]

As per https://lists.launchpad.net/kicad-developers/msg40748.html they aim to release 5.1.3 by the end of June, so it could be anywhere from a day to a month wait.

I'd say let's merge this to upstream, now that I have no planned away time I'll be able to create bump 5.1.3 when it comes out.

[Comment 15 Zakhar 2019-05-31 06:00:05 UTC]

Should have read mailing lists for code freeze and similar release related things before hand. I only mentioned next revision is likely due perdue the bug count for the previous 2 releases.
