HURRY UP, HURRY UP: UUSI 0.4.4.0-3 Just Got Released

Just thought you might want to know.

SHARING is caring.

You are WELCOME!

The PLEASURE was on MY SIDE!

Thank YOU for paying ATTENTION to this SUBJECT MATTER!

Umm what the heck is it ?

I don’t know, but “uusi” means “new” in Finnish. So something new? Or NEW? :grin:

Edit. It can also mean “retry” or in this case “RETRY”

According to it’s github page:

uusi is a simple command-line program to tweak Package Description. In distribution packaging, sometimes we need modify the version range of dependencies. Usually, this can be done by some *nix text processing utilities, such as awk, sed, etc. However, these tools process cabal files as plain text, not considering the semantics. Thus, it might be pesky or elusive to conver the entire cases. uusi has almost no extra dependencies, so it’s safe to introduce uusi as build-depends of the target, which packagers can use to manipulate target’s dependencies. Currently, uusi works in Arch Linux packaging, and you may find out that it has been required by many haskell packages. In most cases, it is used to loose the version constraint of a dependency when building a package, because the dependent haskell package provided by system may be too new to fit the constraints, whereas this package can be built against the newer dependency successfully.

I guess my point is…why should the general audience care? I can’t see myself ever using it.
Is it a passion project of the OP?

I don’t know.

At last, the update we’ve all been waiting for.

Idk, to me it looks like a joke post from OP, as its similarly phrased like the KDE posts here on the forum. whenever a new version of Plasma or kwin (or anything KDE related) launches they write it similarly to make people aware or so.. think its a running joke.
Like:
KDE Plasma 6.7 Is out - HURRY UP!

If that’s the case, it went right over my head!

Cactux is making a joke on the KDE zealotery. A good one, that is, so: Ef u, cactux!!!
Everybody else: HURRY!

(Btw, I mean this as well in a joking manner, hopefully that is understandable)

That’s what I thought, but I wanted to get him to say it :slight_smile:

And I just released some gas :grin:

HURRY, HURRY, already at 0.4.4.0-5!!

These UUSI folks are on fire! Must be running on natural gas. And with such prominent amphibian providers, there will be no shortage in supply in foreseeable future.

So more to come.

And remember:

UPDATE your system regularly and RESPONSIBLY!

Thanks again FOR YOU KNOW WHAT :rofl:

You'reWelcome

I just realized it’s Friday!
NICE!

Well, I don’t have an issue with other users that might be excited if there has been an version bump for specific KDE packages. I don’t mind it. I don’t need to hurry. Nor do I feel the urge to pull in the testing repos (which I actually wouldn’t recommend at all) just to be an early bird to test out some of KDEs new features that would be pulled in in a few days of time anyway. In terms of new features, some of them have been long overdue. Or there are some minor QoL features. I’ll simply ignore those threads. And I don’t see a reason to make a big deal out of it.

To me it’s just an early warning that I may need to postpone system updates, which may cause issues due to the usage of the ALHP from my side. Some packages related to plasma aren’t available as [-x86-64-v3] builds and are only within the official repos. And that may cause some dependency issues untill the [-x86-64-v3] builds are ready.

But I have to say, if someone is bothered by new threads popping up due to an version bump of KDE Plasma. Please don’t provoke an confrontation. There is definitely some middle ground, e.g. an permanent thread dedicated to updates of Plasma which bundles the info in one place.

And that’s already more than I wanted to say initially.

I for one had a good laugh (and still am enjoying the new KDE) :smiley:

I don’t see what it is. My Blocker’s fault.

But anyways:
