| ktecho | Hi there. How's the upgrade of QT in bionic? I heard that it's needed for the latest kde plasma | 10:29 |
|---|---|---|
| acheronuk | ktecho: need to do it in cosmic 1st. that is WIP | 10:53 |
| ktecho | acheronuk: ok, understood. Thanks! | 11:01 |
| mitya57 | lisandro: What can we do right now? Announce future changes, or make changes to existing (Qt 4 / Qt 5) packaging? | 18:33 |
| lisandro | contact upstream to ask them to please use <foo name>-qt6 or alike | 18:34 |
| lubot | <mitya57> I don’t think they will agree :( | 18:35 |
| mitya57 | lisandro: note that even for Qt 4 and Qt 5 which had more incompatibilities, upstream did not provide any official way of co-installing them. | 18:40 |
| lisandro | and do you remember why was that? | 18:40 |
| mitya57 | (qtchooser never became official, and is mostly abandoned now) | 18:40 |
| mitya57 | No I don’t, I was not working on Qt packaging at that time yet :) | 18:41 |
| lisandro | right! | 18:41 |
| lisandro | that was because f what I've said before: submodules maintainers did not consider the problem important enough for chaging stuff at the last minute | 18:42 |
| lisandro | that's because we reached them a few weeks before Qt 5.0.0 | 18:42 |
| lisandro | granted, it doesn't means we are going to be successful this time | 18:43 |
| mitya57 | Ok, maybe you are right then | 18:43 |
| mitya57 | Please start a thread and I will follow it / reply if needed. | 18:43 |
| lisandro | I'll see to talk with sune first | 18:44 |
| lisandro | he might know better than I if it's worth the effort or no | 18:44 |
| mitya57 | Makes sense. | 18:44 |
