 Posted: Sun Sep 01, 2024 5:39 pm Post subject: kde-plasma/plasma-desktop-6.1.4 enforces joystick keyword |
 |
|
For those who may have been hit but a conflict in libsdl2 while trying to upgrade to kde6 that came out today, note that kde-plasma/plasma-desktop-6.1.4 requires libsdl2[joystick] So if joystick USE flag is disabled in your setup, you get failure on update.
Now why, after 30 years of never having joystick on my systems I need to enable USE=joystick ?? |

You're free to set USE=-sdl on kde-plasma/plasma-desktop as well.
Newer software gains newer support. |

Did you see many servers, laptops or even desktops (besides gaming rigs) around with joystick for it to be mandatory ? So much for modularity of a great new software.
SDL is set by plasma profile, are you guaranteeing that KDE-6 plasma uses SDL if and only if there is a need for a joystick and no other purpose? So sdl USE flag should actually be named "joystick" ?
Otherwise, SDL can be used just fine without a joystick then why would the desktop environment make me compile it for hardware that I do not have?
I am looking how the update progresses on a test machine, and see quite a few of dependences that were not present before, and packages that I do not need (such as speech recognition). Will have to see how to get rid of them. |

I'm not sure why we're talking about servers in the context of plasma-desktop.
plasma-desktop recently gained support for game controllers (renamed and rewritten from the joystick module: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/commit/7fe5642bc3dda5d04e299c2f929c54642964bd22). which is handled by USE=sdl. If you don't need that, turn it off?
If you want to request the USE flag being changed, you can, but "feature vs dependency" on USE flag naming is sometimes a struggle to get the right balance on. |

Anyway, the point was that it my case it stopped KDE from clean upgrade since I had global -joystic from like my first installation, and required investigation. So I just wrote in case others in the same boat could see what causes it |

I have just tested it and unfortunately it is not enough to deselect the “joystick” use flag. It was necessary to deselect “sdl” globally to be able to deselect the use-flag “joystick”.

I don't think you had to do it globally, you can do it on just plasma-desktop. Anyway, we'll discuss renaming USE=sdl -> USE=joystick, but I need to check SDL isn't used for anything else in plasma-desktop. |

When I put "kde-plasma/plasma-desktop -sdl" in my package.use (and delete -sdl from USE= in make.conf) then I get:

| That's wesnoth needing libsdl2[joystick] and unrelated to KDE Plasma or any recent changes. |

 ... Big Thank you ! ...
BUT ... I cannot give the use-flag(s) "sdl" (and/or "joystick) to package "wesnoth":
| Code: | # emerge -pvD wesnoth
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Dependency resolution took 2.88 s (backtrack: 0/20).
[ebuild R ~] games-strategy/wesnoth-1.18.2::gentoo USE="dbus nls -dedicated -doc -server" 0 KiB |
... so this means: If I emerge this game I must set "sdl" (and joystick) globally ?

| If you install wesnoth, you need to enable USE=joystick on media-libs/libsdl2 via package.use (or put it in make.conf to enable joystick globally). |

I did what you said:
1. No "-sdl" globally
2. In package-use:
| Code: | media-libs/libsdl2 joystick
kde-plasma/plasma-desktop -sdl |
and WITHOUT a globally "-sdl" I get:
| Code: | # emerge -uUDvp @world
