Nice! Thank you very much for this work!

I wouldn’t say it’s a problem but it’s an additional significant change to be aware of:

polkit is updated to depend on mozjs-78, which depends on Rust which only builds on x86_64. The practical consequence is that polkit and all its dependents (which include GTK+ and some Qt libraries) become x86_64-only packages. I’m not saying it’s a problem, but it’s a big change and I thought it would beuseful to mention it.

I discovered this yesterday night when playing a bit with the core-updates-frozen-batched-changes branch on ppc64le.

This may be a temporary limitation, because there are two pull requests for polkit replacing mozjs with duktape:
