Created attachment 197161 [details] Update; Regen patch lang/vala: * Update to 0.42.0 * Re-generate patch using make makepatch portlint -AC: Looks fine poudriere(amd64) 12-current: built fine
Have you tried building the ports that depend on vala? I think I tried an upgrade to 0.40.x and got quite a bit of fallout. Probably needs an exp-run before committing.
A port I was attempting to upgrade required a newer version, so I upgraded vala to try and get it to work. But yea, it has way too many for me to attempt to test them.
bug #229761 - [exp-run] Update gnome to 3.28. is already trying to update vala to 0.40.7.
There is already an exp-run in progress to update vala to 0.40.7. vala 0.42.x can wait a few months.
Note that 0.36.x and 0.40.x are Long-term Support, while 0.42.x is not (0.44.x will likely)
