Description Eli Schwartz 2023-11-08 19:43:37 UTC 
Please restore keywords dropped with the addition of the following USE flags in calibre 6.29.0.

I don't expect any problems, but for context, the changes are:

- system-mathjax: used when starting the content server and reading an ebook in the browser. Test file can be found at https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/typesetting_math.html
- unrar: used by ebooks in the .cbr format, first google result for a test file brought me to https://archive.org/details/WarPictureLibrary0219.cbr

Oh huh, this seems to be bug 893234

RIP? Not sure what I should do here.
Comment 3 Eli Schwartz 2023-11-08 20:58:57 UTC 
In addition to the webengine-based masking, it seems some Qt 6 packages were not available yet, and I didn't notice due to being distracted by the packages I myself added. :D

Unable to check for sanity:

> package masked: app-text/calibre-7.1.0, in all profiles for arch: arm x86

hm, I suppose it doesn't really strictly depend on bug 914026 as-is, but dunno how we want to handle it. I don't tend to like changing package lists mid-way through.
Comment 7 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2023-11-28 03:44:04 UTC 
Erm, that means qtwebengine:6 for x86 and arm, do we really want to do try this?

Wouldn't say if this was arm64.
Comment 8 Eli Schwartz 2023-11-28 04:02:58 UTC 
Like I said, I dunno what to do here.

In theory, one answer might be bug 669082. This is closed for lack of interest because the binhost will provide gpkg's for use by anyone that wants a bin of qtwebengine... but will that work for x86? I don't know what it takes to get a decent 64-bit toolchain going for the purpose of compiling x86 binpkgs using a linker that has access to reasonable quantities of your system's memory.

Is this something that would be easier to do using a carefully rigged local setup in order to produce prebuilt binaries suitable for repackaging in a qtwebengine-bin ebuild? Maybe.
Comment 9 Eli Schwartz 2023-11-28 04:04:46 UTC 
Also arm64 is bug 907080 :P
Comment 10 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2023-11-28 04:22:51 UTC 
Ah sorry, I went a bit over comment #2.

While I tried the whole qt stack on x86 in a chroot (to see if tests were fine), I still hadn't even dared try qtwebengine. Generally tend to wonder if we should bother with it even if we can hack our way to make it work.

For arm64 I'll be needing it for qutebrowser too, albeit put sorting that out on hold given it still supports qt5 and USE=qt6 is masked (I was hoping bug #914026 would do at least ppc* before look at keywording more packages and starting to unmask USE=qt6, but I guess that's stalled forever).
Comment 11 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-11-29 06:03:21 UTC 
It's masked already on arm/x86 so closing for now as it's not rekeywording and not really sure we're that worried about getting this available again after years right this moment.

Can reopen if you want to pursue it though.

    app-text/calibre: drop stale ~arm, ~x86 keywords
    
    calibre is masked because qtwebengine is masked on arm & x86, so these keywords
    weren't doing anything anyway and were just misleading at this point (giving
    the appearance of dropped kws).

Thanks, that change seems logical to me. I only opened this rekeyword bug out of a sense of obligation ;) I have no actual stake in it.
