Thank you yet again for your stupendous work on this complicated application.
I am assigning it to you as being the visible maintainer (indeed, you have already put this in Cauldron).

Unless QA can add any meaningful testing (perhaps the update or install described in https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30623#c2), no doubt your own expert tests on this update are good for OK.

Can you confirm whether all this is already in core/backport_testing and nonfree/backport_testing? If so, this can go to QA.

Hi Lewis

I confirm all the stuff is in core/updates_testing core/backport_testing and nonfree/backport_testing
This can go to QA

https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30624#c1
can be the backport advisory

Maybe a file attached would be better ?

Once again, thanks for clarifications.

Since this is labeled as a backport request, I have changed the component field accordingly. But, this is not the usual backport, so that change could be in error. If so, please make the appropriate changes.

Again, since this is a backport, it doesn't get the same level of testing as a "regular" update. I'm not competent to test this for function anyway, so I will do what I can.

I used qarepo to download the files from Bug 30624 and installed them and their dependencies directly, where I was presented with information about these backports.

I enabled the various backport-testing repos for update, and used drakrpm-update to update 3 of the packages from Comment 0. No installation issues. Then I went to drakrpm and installed the fourth package, again with no issues.

I then ran the gui, played with it a bit, and it didn't crash. That's about as far as I can go with it, but it should be good enough for a backport OK.

Validating it as a backport, though I'm not sure that's quite right.

Hi Thomas
Indeed it's not easy to completely test those backported plugins :

1) opencpn-o-charts-plugin and opencpn-s63-plugin need to have bought encrypted charts with decryption keys to dispaly those charts
2) opencpn-radar-plugin needs the computer being connected to a radar harware

Nevertheless if  opencpn-o-charts-plugin and opencpn-s63-plugin are installed and activated you may see a o-charts tab and a s63 tab in the charts menu

If opencpn-radar-plugin is installed and activated a pop-up window appears and ask to connect it to a radar

The only one that can be fully tested is :
 opencpn-sar-plugin when installed and activated is icon appears in the icons tray if you click on it propose to create a pattern for a route to Search And Rescue a man over board (MOB) from the boat position if your computer is connected to a GPS or from the cursor place on the chart

I tested them all (with decryption key or USB decryption dongle for the charts plugins)
