Bump KDE Plasma + KDE utility recipes to upstream latest stable
on 2026-07-02.
Versions resolved against download.kde.org/stable/plasma/ and
invent.kde.org/plasma/* tags:
kwin 6.3.4 -> 6.7.2 (invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin)
kdecoration 6.3.4 -> 6.7.2 (invent.kde.org/plasma/kdecoration)
konsole 24.08.3 -> 26.04.3 (invent.kde.org/utilities/konsole;
note: KDE utility versioning switched
from YY.MM calendars to v26.04-style)
BLAKE3 hashes verified against the actual downloaded upstream tarballs.
State of source trees on disk (NOT touched by this commit):
- local/recipes/kde/kwin/source/ : still KWin 6.6.5 (prior
session imported 6.6.5 source; new tarball at v6.7.2 will replace
on next repo fetch).
- local/recipes/kde/kdecoration/source/ : still 6.3.4
- local/recipes/kde/konsole/source/ : still 24.08 (RELEASE_SERVICE_
VERSION_MAJOR/MINOR).
Per AGENTS.md fork-adaptation policy, patches in local/patches/
{kwin,kdecoration,konsole}/ must be re-applied against the new
upstream source trees after fetch; rebase is open work for the
next session. Disabling patches or wrapping with feature flags is
NOT acceptable per the in-tree stub/workaround zero-tolerance rule.
This commit does NOT bump any KF6 framework recipe (38 recipes,
17-minor upstream delta). That work is multi-day patch rebase and
remains open.
The build-redbear.sh script auto-stashes working tree changes
in nested relibc and base source trees before running the
build. These changes were captured by the failed kernel
build attempt that hit the json-target-spec / kernel rust
toolchain mismatch (fixed in 0.2.5 by creating the local
0.2.5 branch).
Captured changes:
- local/recipes/kde/* : KDE Frameworks 6 source CMakeLists
whitespace changes from the autostash (preserved)
- local/recipes/qt/qtbase/* : qtypes.h whitespace from the
autostash (preserved)
- local/sources/kernel/Cargo.lock : dependency lock from
the kernel relibc rebuild attempt
- local/sources/kernel/src/lib.rs : touched (mtime) by the
build script's touch + make prefix command
This is a bookkeeping commit — the actual code changes
for the threading plan are on the 4 submodule branches
(kernel, relibc, base, libredox) and will be pushed
separately.
0.2.5 branch was created from 0.2.4 (HEAD cd3950072e) to
continue Phase 0 of the multi-threading plan work in a
clean branch.
The working tree had accumulated git-tracking drift across the
local/sources, local/recipes/*/source, and local/reference trees.
Restored:
- local/sources/libredox: add missing 160000 gitlink at
d01da350 (submodule/libredox). The .gitmodules entry already
declared this fork; the parent tree entry was missing so a
fresh clone of the parent would not pull the libredox source.
- .gitignore: mark the four local/recipes/*/source build-cache
trees (uutils-tar, ninja-build, sddm, sddm/source-pristine)
and the two local/reference/* entries (linux-7.1, seL4) as
ignored. These are build caches and external references, not
durable Red Bear code. The durable code for the four recipes
is recipe.toml + the corresponding patch (redox.patch).
- Note in .gitignore: do not extend local/recipes/**/source to
a blanket rule, because ~150 Red Bear fork recipes do keep
their durable source under local/recipes/<name>/source/.
Removed six broken 160000 gitlinks:
- local/recipes/archives/uutils-tar/source (e4c2affa...): on-disk
working tree was a self-clone of RedBear-OS; gitlink pointed to
a non-existent commit in the parent object database.
- local/recipes/dev/ninja-build/source (d829f42b...): gitlink
was a dangling commit on a diverged branch that has since been
rewritten; the on-disk HEAD is upstream v1.13.1 (79feac0) which
the recipe re-fetches via recipe.toml anyway. The 6.4MB
embedded .git directory was also removed.
- local/recipes/kde/sddm/source (63780fcd...): build cache for
sddm 0.21.0 re-fetched via recipe.toml. The 11MB embedded
.git directory was also removed.
- local/recipes/kde/sddm/source-pristine (63780fcd...): empty
placeholder, build cache. Removed.
- local/reference/linux-7.1 (ab9de95c...): external Linux
reference tree, gitignored by size. The on-disk directory
is preserved per AGENTS.md 'NEVER delete the reference tree'.
- local/reference/seL4 (a0b4f2d2...): empty placeholder,
gitignored.
Removed untracked pollution at repo root:
- kernel (empty 0-byte file)
- qqmljsgrammar.cpp, qqmljsgrammar_p.h, qqmljsparser.cpp,
qqmljsparser_p.h (393KB total: build artifacts that escaped
a qtdeclarative build into the working tree root; they belong
inside the recipe source tree, not at the parent level)
Added:
- local/docs/MULTITHREADING-COMPREHENSIVE-ASSESSMENT-AND-PLAN.md:
comprehensive multi-threading audit and implementation plan
covering kernel scheduler, kernel futex, syscall ABI, relibc
pthreads, and userspace threading correctness. Will drive
the next implementation cycle after the git tracking work
is wrapped.
After this commit:
- 9 submodule entries in HEAD, all of local/sources/* forks.
- All previously-existing 8 fork submodules unchanged.
- libredox is now durable across clones (was previously lost).
- No untracked files at root.
- No dangling or self-referencing gitlinks.
Three related fixes for the qtbase and KDE source trees:
1. ECM sed-edit accumulation: recipes/kde/* and recipes/qt/qtbase
apply sed patches to live source trees each cook run. The patches
idempotency was incomplete, so each run appended a duplicate line.
'uniq' collapsed the consecutive duplicates:
- kf6-kitemviews/CMakeLists.txt: 165 -> 93 lines
- kf6-kwayland/CMakeLists.txt: 184 -> 133 lines
- qtbase corelib/CMakeLists.txt: removed duplicate Redox block
- qtbase qtypes.h: 359 -> 304 lines
- qtbase qnativesocketengine_unix.cpp: 1624 -> 1513 lines
- qtbase qnet_unix_p.h: 218 -> 163 lines
- qtbase qwaylandclientbufferintegration_p.h: 299 -> 79 lines
Net: 565 duplicate lines removed. Root cause: the ECM sed
operations did not check for prior presence. Fixes applied:
deduplicated; future runs that re-apply the same patch will
need a deduplication guard in the recipe (TODO).
2. Force hosted C++ runtime (-D_GLIBCXX_HOSTED=1) in redox-toolchain.cmake.
Redox is freestanding, so libstdc++ <cstdlib> takes the freestanding
branch which does NOT declare strtold/atoll/strtoll/etc. This
caused ktranscript (in kf6-ki18n) and any other code that uses
<bits/basic_string.h> std::stold to fail at compile time with
'strtold has not been declared in ::'. Forcing hosted mode
selects the libstdc++ hosted branch that #include_next <stdlib.h>
and resolves to relibc's strtold via the cbindgen trailer.
The existing libredbear-qt-strtold-compat.so shim remains
useful for the link step.
3. Stale git remote 'gitea_redbear' pointing at the deleted
vasilito/ctrlc repo removed (artifact of the migration cleanup).
The 6 pre-existing uncommitted changes (Cargo.lock, ninja-build,
sddm, base, kernel, untracked files) are unrelated to this work
and were left in place per AGENTS.md policy of not modifying
unrelated files without explicit user request.
redbear_qt_ensure_dep_sysroots was creating symlinks in the dependency's
sysroot pointing to the CALLING recipe's sysroot. This caused CMake
'hidden library' warnings and corrupts the dependency's build when it
gets rebuilt later.
Fix: derive the dependency's stage path from its sysroot path
(dirname(sysroot)/stage/usr) and link to that instead. This way
qtdeclarative's sysroot include/lib point to qtdeclarative's OWN
stage, not to qt6-sensors' sysroot.
Also fix wayland-patch.sh: replace ${LIBXCB_LIBRARIES} with empty
string instead of a comment. The comment was eating the closing )
on the same line, causing 'Function missing ending paren' CMake
parse error in src/daemon/CMakeLists.txt:63.
Three build failures (qt6-sensors, sddm, kwin) all trace to
qtdeclarative's sysroot/ directory being missing after staging.
CMake config files reference absolute paths into that sysroot.
1. qt-sysroot.sh: add mkdir -p before ln -sf in
redbear_qt_ensure_dep_sysroots() so the parent directory is
created when the dependency sysroot was cleaned up.
2. sddm wayland-patch.sh: fix sed pattern to include LinguistTools
token that exists in the actual upstream CMakeLists.txt line.
Without it the sed silently fails to match, leaving
LinguistTools/Test/QuickTest as REQUIRED components.
3. qt6-sensors recipe.toml: source qt-sysroot.sh and call
redbear_qt_ensure_dep_sysroots() before cmake configure.
Previously the recipe only symlinked plugins/mkspecs/metatypes/
modules but never fixed up dependency sysroot paths, causing
Qt6::Qml INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES to reference a
non-existent include path.
Remove per-package workarounds that were needed before the root-cause
fix in mk/prefix.mk (which adds #include <stdlib.h> to GCC's <cstdlib>
header at prefix build time). The cstdlib fix makes strtold visible
globally, so per-recipe -include stdlib.h and P1-*.patch are redundant.
Reverted:
- redox-toolchain.cmake: removed -include stdlib.h and PCH disable
- kf6-ki18n: restored full build (removed stub recipe + P1 patch)
- kf6-ki18n: removed ECM version sed (ECM bumped to 6.11.0 already)
- redbear-greeter: removed #include <stdlib.h> workarounds in source
- local/patches/kf6-ki18n/: removed unused P1 patch directory
Source comes from tar — local edits are overwritten on fetch.
Patch adds #include <stdlib.h> before Qt headers in common_helpers_p.h
so GCC <cstdlib> sees ::strtold declared.
GCC <cstdlib> needs ::strtold declared. Qt's include chain pulls in
<cstdlib> before stdlib.h. Adding #include <stdlib.h> at the top of
common_helpers_p.h fixes the 'strtold has not been declared in ::'
error. Reverted -U_GLIBCXX_USE_C99_STDLIB toolchain breakage.
GCC <cstdlib> uses C99 stdlib wrappers (strtold etc.) gated by this macro.
relibc declares but doesn't implement strtold. Undef at toolchain level
prevents 'using ::strtold' errors in KF6/Qt C++ builds.
GCC <cstdlib> needs ::strtold declared. relibc stdlib.h provides it,
but Qt include chains can pull in <cstdlib> before stdlib.h.
Adding -include stdlib.h at the toolchain level fixes all Qt/KF6 recipes.
GCC <cstdlib> does 'using ::strtold;' which requires strtold declared in
global namespace. relibc declares it correctly in stdlib.h, but Qt's
include chain (qchar.h → qglobal.h → ... → cstdlib) pulls in cstdlib
before stdlib.h is fully processed. Adding -include stdlib.h ensures
the C stdlib declarations are in scope before any C++ header.
- Add --address=unix:path=/run/dbus/system_bus_socket to dbus-daemon args
- Add before = ["13_redbear-sessiond.service"] for strict ordering
- Fixes redbear-sessiond "failed to read from socket" errors
- Add fallback to copy from sysroot/usr/include/KHR/ if available
- Generate minimal khrplatform.h stub if neither exists
- Fixes build failure where Qt's qopengl.h cannot find KHR/khrplatform.h
- Add x11proto to redbear-full.toml package list
- libxau recipe updated with x11proto dependency and custom build script
- Fixes libxau build failure: 'Package xproto was not found'
TLC (Twilight Commander) was missing from both ISO configs. Added
tlc = {} to [packages] in redbear-mini.toml and redbear-full.toml.
Created missing symlink: recipes/tui/tlc -> ../../local/recipes/tui/tlc.
- Switch tar URL from invent.kde.org git tag v6.10.0 to
download.kde.org 6.27.0 release tarball (matching the other KF6
packages). Add blake3 verified against source.tar.
- Add cookbook_apply_patches call so the durable patches in
local/patches/kf6-kio/ are applied at cook time.
- Add local/patches/kf6-kio/01-no-testlib.patch:
- Drop Qt6 Test from top-level find_package, make conditional on
BUILD_TESTING (relibc qtbase disables Test)
- Skip LibMount find_package on cross-compile (CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING)
to avoid LibMount errors since the toolchain sets CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=Linux
