Description Adrien Dessemond 2022-11-28 19:55:59 UTC
The package builds fine however for some reason, there is an interesting mix of (lib)soup flavors somewhere in the recipe and now Remmina crashes at start up :)

I do have net-libs/libsoup:2.4 and net-libs/libsoup:3.0 on the machine. It is a known issue at the upstream level which seems to have brought some corrections approximatively one month ago. However the project did not issued a new release (yet).
Comment 1 Ben Kohler gentoo-dev 2022-11-28 20:16:44 UTC
I can package a new snapshot but I'm a bit concerned that it seems like there may be some automatic detection for chosen libsoup versions, and webkit-gtk versions.  

We may need to explicitly depend on the newer versions to ensure that the recorded deps match what libraries are linked.

The scenario I fear is:

- You install remmina on stable, linked to libsoup-2.4 and webkit-gtk-4.0
- You later unmask & install unstable libsoup-3.0 and webkit-gtk-4.1
- Next depclean removes libsoup-2.4 and webkit-gtk-4.0 since they're not needed anymore
- Remmina doesn't run anymore

I think if we make the new snapshot explicitly depend on libsoup:3.0 and webkit-gtk:4.1 then we're safe, but this version may not go stable for a while.
Comment 2 Ben Kohler gentoo-dev 2022-11-28 20:26:53 UTC
Oh they actually removed NEWS support and the libsoup requirement altogether, if I read this correctly: https://gitlab.com/Remmina/Remmina/-/commit/dd63c22a4aeb302e604368677903ae2b6ac67715
Comment 3 Adrien Dessemond 2022-11-28 20:30:00 UTC
Indeed, I think that the issue kicked in when I have added  the useflag webdav to net-misc/spice-gtk. Doing so brought in net-libs/phodav:3.0 which is also mentioned in the upstream bug.

Can you test with this new snapshot?
Comment 6 Adrien Dessemond 2022-12-05 14:29:25 UTC
Issue fixed! :) Thank you!

Remmina 1.4.28 incorporates the patch at the upstream level and does not exhibit the issue.
