Phase 2 took a step forward. Someone else fixed a threading issue and that made everything pass on the HEAD of the git repository for #Chez #scheme on my #haikuos build box. So I've just submitted the PR to the upstream project to re-establish Haiku support in Chez. Let's see how that goes.

Reminder, the #haikuports version of Chez Scheme is already available.

I've done a bit of experimenting getting #racket to build, but I'm not there yet. #Akku looks promising too.

After the update on Qt (6.1.03) for Haiku finished it was time to update our KF6 to 6.25.0.
Those are now available for 32bit and 64bit.

https://kde.org/announcements/frameworks/6/6.25.0/

A few applications there after updated to 25.12.3 (read kirigami/qtquick related rendering), and are on par with current release. In the screenshot Tokodon (using at the moment to write this post) 25.12.3 with Qt6.10.3 and KF6 6.25.0).

Qt6.10.3 is released to the Haiku public now (64bit and 32bit)! This brings us up to current status on Qt6.
After having spend a few years I guess on updating this from 6.8.0 up to 6.11.0 (last one still has some issues) it was time to release the latest stable here.

I hope you enjoy the update!

The #chez #scheme port got merged in the #haikuports repository just under an hour ago.

Yay. Happy hacking #haikuos users who love Scheme (there must be at least four of us!).

The #chez #scheme port for haiku is progressing through review. I was impressed with the speed and quality of reviewing that was done so far. As a first time contributor to #haikuports it's really nice to get the feedback and tips. #haikuos #scheme

Well, I had to learn more that I was expecting (particularly about how tests work in the #chez #scheme code), but I've just submitted the PR on the #haikuports
repository. If that port gets accepted I'll have a go at getting the new #haiku machine types for Chez added to the upstream project.

I might then move towards getting #racket up and running on #Haiku on the basis of the Chez port. #haikuos

Krita 6 (and 5.3) released! Two top-tier #art #apps for the price of one!
Look forward to Wayland color management (for Krita 6); an overhauled text tool with direct on-canvas editing, wrapped text and text-on-path capacity; a new #comic panel assistant; and so much more 🖌️.

5.3.0 now released also for Haiku, 6.0.0 is still a bit too early to replace 5.3.0 on Haiku.
