Bug 556088 – [kde overlay] app-text/kbibtex:5 requires to Qt5-based dev-libs/qoauth

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Eugene Shalygin 2015-07-28 06:22:07 UTC]

app-text/kbibtex-9999 compiles and links against Qt4 version of dev-libs/qoauth and, naturally, crashes on startup. Please either provide Qt5 version of dev-libs/qoauth or disable the corresponding find_package call

KBibTeX Git master (which should get fetch and compiled for version 9999) ships a Qt5-based qoauth in src/3rdparty/qoauth
The ebuild file should be changed that no dependency to qoauth is pulled for 9999.

Some details on future KBibTeX releases is available here:
http://t-fischer.dreamwidth.org/3314.html
tl;dr: 0.6.x and 0.7 will be based on Qt4/KDE4. 'master' and 0.8 will be based on Qt5/KF5.

In the future, KBibTeX may make use of a system-provided OAuth/Qt5 instead of the sources shipped in src/3rdparty/qoauth, similarly as already done for libQxt.

I've just created a live ebuild for Qt5-based qoauth - is there any way to make use of it in kbibtex, yet?

Thanks.
