== Apps using Qt4's WbKit == | == Template text to file bugs == {{{ Subject: Qt4's WebKit removal Source: @FILLME@ User: debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org Usertags: qt4webkit-removal Hi! As you might know we the Qt/KDE team are preparing to remove Qt4's WebKit as announced in [announce]. [announce] <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2015/05/msg00001.html> Basically we are about to get the last Qt4 point release and upstream is migrating from WebKit to Blink in the Qt5 series, so we won't have much upstreams support for maintaining Qt4's WebKit (Qt5's WebKit is expected to stay supported until Qt6). In order to make this move, all packages directly or indirectly depending on the Qt4's WebKit library have to either get ported to Qt5 or eventually get removed from the Debian repositories. Therefore, please take the time and: - contact your upstream (if existing) and ask about the state of a Qt5 port of your application - if there are no activities regarding porting, investigate whether there are suitable alternatives for your users - if there is a Qt5 port that is not yet packaged, consider packaging it - if both the Qt4 and the Qt5 versions already coexist in the Debian archives, consider removing the Qt4 version = Porting = Some of us where involved in various Qt4 to Qt5 migrations [migration] and we know for sure that porting stuff from Qt4 to Qt5 is much much easier and less painful than it was from Qt3 to Qt4. We also understand that there is still a lot of software still using Qt4. In order to ease the transition time we have provided Wheezy backports for Qt5. Don't forget to take a look at the C++ API changes page [apichanges] whenever you start porting your application. [migration] http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/packagingqtbasedstuff.html [apichanges] http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/sourcebreaks.html For any questions and issues, do not hesitate to contact the Debian Qt/KDE team at debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org }}} == Apps using Qt4's WebKit == |
