Thanks, but that's not a proper solution for end-users.
*25.2.x
Sorry for the silly typo.
So... Was there any progress? It would be great to update Mesa in F42 to 52.2.x (and if possible also Mesa in F43 to 25.3.x). Both already have very recent kernel 6.18, but still using an outdated Mesa version without any of the recent improvements and support for newer hardware.
Yelp has still old GTK3 screenshot instead of the new, shiny GTK4 one. But everything else I tried looks and works fine. Thanks!
@mcrha: The About dialog version is correct in Fedora 42.
Oops, I have just noticed that the "failed to add subkeys" error was also present in older (rc3) build. So it is not a regression, but still something that should be fixed.
By the way, there is one more small problem: The About dialog shows git commit as the Software version.
Fixes the LibreOffice langpack installation issue, however it looks like that this update made the "failed to add subkeys" error reappear.
Looks good now!
(Not sure about the duplicate, non-standard /usr/share/icons/alienarena/alien-arena.png icon file though.)
I just noticed one more big problem: The metainfo file name is incorrect. It should match the app id, but is "org.fedoraproject.alienarena.metainfo.xml" for some reason. Fedora Project is not the Alien Arena game developer, we just package it.
Please fix this by renaming the file to "org.alienarena.alienarena.metainfo.xml".
Two more bug bugs should be fixed:
-
The Icon name in desktop file includes a ".png" suffix that should not be there and will most likely cause problems for AppStream parsers and some desktop environments. The icon name should be just "alien-arena".
-
The /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/alien-arena.png file seems to be the 256x256 version instead of 32x32.
Thanks for working on this, but it sadly does not look good. There are multiple problems with the provided AppStream metadata file:
- It is using a very ancient, deprecated AppStream syntax. Please re-write the file using latest AppStream standard.
- The app id name (alien-arena) does not match the AppStream file name (alienarena - without the dash).
Ideally, the file name and app id should also use a reverse-DNS format and the correct desktop file should be matched by using a "launchable" tag pointing to a correct desktop-id.
Also, the AppStream file should be installed into "/usr/share/metainfo". "/usr/share/appdata" is deprecated and won't be supported anymore in the future.
Manually installed the new build. BZ#2356893 is now partially fixed: The ':' char is correctly stripped, however the padding between the text entry field and the prompt message is still too small.
(Except the Wine OSMesa dependency issue.)
Fixes the undefined symbol issue.
Still the same missing translation issues. Updating only the translation template solves nothing.
True and it is the right approach. I just hope this wasn't the last 25.2.x build for F42. :)
