Port to PyQt6#331
Conversation
Qt5 is now declared deprecated in GentooAt this point in time, Linux distributions are already tracking which packages are blocking a future Qt5 cleanup. Real Qt Company OSS support stopped back in 2020, when public availability of LTS releases started to be delayed for 1 year, stable branch repository access got closed down (with 5.15 branch repository receiving any new LTS tag one year after commercial release) and only Qt6-relevant bugs are being fixed (then backported) since then. The final release happened on 2025-05-19, which means a) we will not get it until 2026-06-19, b) any bugs discovered since last May will not be fixed and c) no bugs since 2020-12-08 that haven't also been affecting Qt6 were fixed at all. At least Gentoo, Alpine and Ubuntu are entertaining Qt6 porting trackers by now, for Gentoo, Qt5 revdep cleanups are in full swing already. |
