Most people don't use fuzzshark, so don't waste compute resources
building it. OSS-Fuzz has been updated to always build fuzzshark in
https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz/pull/7373
GitLab Runner 14.8 added a native Arm binary for macOS. It's been
installed on our build machine, so the `arch` calls in the "macOS Arm
Package" job are no longer needed.
We keep our various packaging assets in the "packaging" directory. Move
the Debian assets there. dpkg-buildpackage doesn't seem appear to have a
"debian directory path" option, but symlinking worked in my test
container.
commit^N means the Nth parent of a commit object (after a merge,
for example.) It is not the same as the Nth generation ancestor
(following only the first parents), which is commit~N, or
alternatively commit^^^^^ (N times), or even commit^1^1^1....
(See 'man gitrevisions' for details.)
When the number of commits is N, we want the Nth generation ancestor.
Fixes error messages like:
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD^3': unknown revision or path not
in the working tree.
The Ubuntu APT Package job takes a long time to run. Do so after merging
and add a package test job, similar to the other Linux package builds.
The Latest Clang job has been detecting errors that also affect macOS.
Run it for merge requests. Fix Ubuntu build caching.
Having some options use DISABLE_ and others ENABLE_ is inconsistent
and difficult to remember. Use ENABLE_ instead consistently.
Frame-larger-than remains an exception.
The 32-bit Windows Installer / WiX / .msi packages make up a tiny
percentage of our downloads, and they take a non-trivial amount of time
to create. Stop building them. Ping #17779.
CMake's FindPerl module and our FindNSIS and FindWiX modules can find
perl, makensis, and the various WiX utilities in their default locations
so we don't need to prepopulate our PATH.
Update FindWiX to look for version 3.11.
After switching to Visual Studio's CMake the Windows MR builds started
failing with

This appears to be caused by
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/22014 which should be
fixed in recent versions of the official CMake distribution.
Qt's documentation recommends using CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to designate your
Qt installation prefix: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/cmake-get-started.html.
Do so in GitLab's CI and update the Developer's Guide.
Move the Lintian check from the Ubuntu .dpkg job to the Debian package
job. This should reduce the time it takes to build merge request
pipelines a little bit.
Asciidoctor is now required for packaging. Try to make sure it's
installed on CentOS 8 and openSUSE 15.2. Note that CentOS 8 doesn't have
an Asciidoctor package, which complicates our SPEC.
The openSUSE 15.2 RPM Test step occasionally fails when trying to
retrieve repository metadata. Add "--no-remote" to the zypper install
command in the openSUSE 15.2 RPM Test to match the offline behavior of
our other RPM tests.
display on CI build, the text output (and not xml)
store all cppcheck output files on cppcheck folder
(you need to launch cppcheck twice for generate txt and xml)
Use an apostrophe instead of RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK in our PDF and
EPUB filenames. Some programs (notably Okular) can't open filenames with
extended characters, at least on Windows.
