| estan | hi all. anyone know what is likely going to be the Qt version for 20.04? i know it's currently 5.12 LTS, but is it possible it'll be a later version for the final release? (5.14?) | 09:03 |
|---|---|---|
| mitya57 | estan: It is possible. We are still discussing that. | 09:04 |
| estan | alright. thanks mitya57. | 09:05 |
| estan | mitya57: are the discussions public or internal? | 09:06 |
| mitya57 | This was three days ago on this channel :) | 09:07 |
| estan | :) | 09:07 |
| mitya57 | But Qt is mostly packaged my me, and I have problems with free time, so don't expect any updates until either 5.14.1 or 5.12.7 is released. | 09:08 |
| estan | i see, very understandable. | 09:09 |
| estan | great work btw. | 09:09 |
| estan | you have one developer who would be a happy camper seeing 5.14.x in 20.04 here at least :p | 09:10 |
| RikMills | I would say for 5.14 we have to at least be able to get 5.14.2 in. There is no schedule from Qt yet on that. | 09:10 |
| mitya57 | If we manage to get 5.14.1 in before feature freeze, then updating to 5.14.2 will be easier. | 09:11 |
| RikMills | I would like 5.14 so we can support things like newer plasma backports for longer | 09:11 |
| RikMills | 20.04 will have plasma 5.18 LTS, and I would not be surprised if plasma >= 5.19 bumps the required Qt version to newer than 5.12 | 09:14 |
| mitya57 | Ack | 09:15 |
| RikMills | mitya57: yeah, but while Qt are being quite vague about schedules, saying things like point release will be 'one to 2 months later' I wonder if 5.14.2 would fall before final freeze | 09:16 |
| RikMills | or there is a chance it might | 09:16 |
| RikMills | we shall have to see in the new year if things are clearer | 09:17 |
| mitya57 | Right, let's return to this in January | 09:17 |
| RikMills | yes, I was repeating mostly for estan's benefit | 09:18 |
| estan | thanks guys. i'll just sit tight. | 09:20 |
| estan | (also found your previous discussion at https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2019/12/12/%23ubuntu-qt.html , should have checked before asking but the logs are not searchable so it's a bit of clicking :p) | 09:27 |
| estan | i see the next Qt release team irc meeting is jan 7 btw. maybe then they'll have a preliminary date for 5.14.1. | 09:31 |
