19:01:42 <meshcollider> hi
19:02:14 <instagibbs> hi
19:02:15 <wumpus> there are no pre-proposed meeting topics for this week in http://gnusha.org/bitcoin-core-dev/proposedmeetingtopics.tx
19:02:26 <wumpus> any last minute ones ?
19:03:10 <wumpus> #topic High priority for review
19:03:28 <wumpus> currently https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/8   13 blockers, 1 bugfix, 3 chasing concept ACK
19:03:44 <wumpus> anything to add/remove/switch around?
19:03:53 <hebasto> Could I nominate #18307 for high-prio?
19:03:55 <gribble> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18307 | build: Require pkg-config for all of the hosts by hebasto · Pull Request #18307 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
19:05:02 <wumpus> hebasto: sure, added
19:05:08 <hebasto> thanks!
19:05:34 <wumpus> I somehow thought  #18297 already did this :)
19:05:37 <gribble> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18297 | build: Use pkg-config in BITCOIN_QT_CONFIGURE for all hosts including Windows by hebasto · Pull Request #18297 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
19:05:40 <jeremyrubin> hi
19:05:45 <luke-jr> tbh I  never really understood why we didn't do this from the start
19:06:12 <hebasto> 18297 did for Qt only
19:06:27 <luke-jr> yes, I mean why we *ever* had any other behaviour
19:06:43 <wumpus> luke-jr: it used to be extremely difficult or even impossible to get pkgconfig to do the right thing on mingw
19:06:54 <luke-jr> wumpus: really? I never had a problem :/
19:07:05 <wumpus> or at least that was the assumption, it grew from that
19:07:24 <wumpus> sure, it could have been a faulty assumption
19:07:38 <wumpus> in any case I'm happy that this can use a simpler unified approach now
19:08:10 <luke-jr> I guess someone should test it in the same environment that once had problems?
19:08:12 <wumpus> FWIW I also remember pkg-config horror with cross-compiles in the past, this became a lot better in recent times
19:08:24 <cfields> ^^ what wumpus said. mingw+pkgconfig wasn't well supported when it was implemented.
19:08:36 <wumpus> I doubt that environment still exists, or is capable of building bitcoin core :)
19:08:42 <luke-jr> wumpus: I thought half the point of pkg-config in the first place was to fix cross-compile stuff
19:09:14 <luke-jr> ie, by having text files defining the requirements instead of custom qt-config type binaries
19:10:01 <luke-jr> wumpus: well, MingW on Windows then?
19:10:12 <wumpus> in my case it was something with paths not getting set right in the text files
19:10:19 <luke-jr> would be a shame to get locked into MSVC++ for native Windows builds
19:10:26 <luke-jr> i c
19:10:28 <cfields> luke-jr: a big part of the problem was that libs didn't bother trying to get the libs right for windows. Now they're better.
19:10:37 <wumpus> so it required an ugly level of patching, or, the target program supporting another way to pass in dependencies
19:10:45 <wumpus> in any case this was problably solved 5 years ago :)
19:11:03 <wumpus> it's no longer relevant and we can move on
19:11:13 <wumpus> does anyone have other topics to discuss?
19:11:27 <luke-jr> wtxid relay got a BIP I saw
19:12:13 <luke-jr> oh, and shaolinfry merged my PR to BIP 8, which fixes up some stuff and also enables a path forward for any other revisions we might want to make
19:12:25 <wumpus> good to hear that
19:12:29 <sipa> BIP 339 is wtxid relay
19:12:33 <luke-jr> (enables it because that PR added me as a co-champion)
19:13:37 <sipa> anyway, short meeting is best meeting?

19:13:52 <luke-jr> XD
19:13:55 <wumpus> yes :)
