gpgme-2.0.0, gpgmepp-2.0.0 (new)

[Bruce Dubbs]

New major version.

[martyj19]

The package is split into three parts: gpgme (core), gpgmepp (C++ binding), qgpgme (Qt binding). There are some API deprecation removals that might lead to build failures.

gpgmepy is also separated thus the instructions regarding Python needs to be removed. I don't know if we need to add gpgmepy into Python modules/dependencies.

seahorse needs a sed:

sed '/GPGME_EVENT_NEXT_TRUSTITEM/d' -i pgp/seahorse-gpgme.c

This one might be a little tricky. The following packages are documented as using gpgme:

• libreoffice
• balsa
• mutt
• samba
• KDE Frameworks
• Seahorse
• Mercurial
• gmime3
• poppler

If I'm going to have to build Mercurial I might take the opportunity to update it at the same time.

I was thinking of setting up a page similar to Gedit, what are your thoughts on that? I could also break them into separate pages if desired but I feel like a combined page would be cleaner - though at the same time it might break jhalfs which isn't something I want to do

Either way it is going to require a change to currency. I prefer a single page because I think most users will want to build all the subprojects.

But I don't even build Qt those days... And I don't think anything in the book uses qgpgme (otherwise we'd already have Qt as recommended instead of optional in the gpgme page). Maybe better just have gpgme and gpgmepp in a page.

Arch is an excellent source for dependency information and they already have a split package. We can see from this list that qgpgme will probably be needed just for KDE.

I just "grep -r" those packages in the blfs tree and the only matches are in the archive/ directory. Thus to me we can just omit qgpgme.

The API change is not compatible with packages using GPGME-1.24.3. Let's wait until something needs this version.

The situation is different than SDL 2 vs 3 or libpeas 1 vs 2. Here the packages can use GPGME-2 but some of them needs to be adapted.

Thus I don't think we'd treat this like SDL 2 vs 3.

[Xi Ruoyao]

For e.g. poppler already works with GPGME-2. But for backward compatibility it'll support both GPGME-1 and GPGME-2 for a long time (as you cannot install both of the GPGMEs w/o conflict like SDL 2 and 3). Thus if we wait we'd wait forever.

Bring it back and kick out qgpgme for now.
