app-portage/kuroo4 depends on deprecated kdelibs4/qt4 and unfortunately still requires qt3support. It needs to be ported to kf5/qt5 to survive the upcoming Qt4 cleanup.
Porting to KF5/Qt5 has been a task I've wanted to do for a while but my C++ has gotten rusty over the years. I have the scripts from https://cgit.kde.org/kde-dev-scripts.git/tree/kf5 but I need some better explanation of how to do the port correctly. Can you or kde@g.o point me towards a good reference for this?
So first of all you would have to port away from qt3support and kde3support. For that, have a look at KDE4PORTING.html inside the kdelibs tarball. It will also refer to several other resources you should look at. Only once you are able to build the source with kdelibs[-qt3support] can you think about working with the kf5 kde-dev-scripts.

I've managed to get the current HEAD (kuroo4-9999.ebuild in gentoo-guis overlay) building with kdelibs[-qt3support]. I can't find similar *porting.html files in the plasma-(desktop|framework|integration|workspace) or qtbase-opensource-src-5.77.1 tarballs. I'll do a search but if you could point to a good resource so I don't get lost in random internet things that would be very helpful. I think the first problem will be to get CMakeLists pointing at Qt5 and KF5 and everything will break but that gives a starting point to fix from.
That would be here: https://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Porting_Notes
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #4) > That would be here: https://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Porting_Notes I found that and http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/portingguide.html but only the KDE one talks about CMake at all and not a whole lot. Also found https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/manual/cmake-qt.7.html#automoc but it's pretty obtuse to me. I'll try to make some progress with that and the couple cmake scripts in kde-dev-scripts/kf5 (which seem to just delete and break things but surely I'm just not understanding). If you have other suggestions I'd be happy to hear them (like a list somewhere of all the possible COMPONENTS for the find_package( KF5 COMPONENTS ... ) line since everything is broken up instead of just one find_package( KDE4 ) like before).
Not all the porting scripts work fine in all situations; for help, #kde-devel is always there with a helping hand.
any progress here?
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #7) > any progress here? Made a decent progress at first but have slowed down due to starting a new job and having to move and not having Internet service yet. Not forgotten, just taking a while.
Thanks for the update! There's still some time left before we can think about last-riting kdelibs.

Much more progress! Haven't verified everything yet, but the core functionality is working. There seems to be a disagreement between KDEsu and KStatusNotifierItem now so the tray icon isn't showing up. I'd like to get that working again before a proper release, but I feel good enough for a -9999 release. I'd like to pmgmove and slotmove back to app-portage/kuroo:0 since the current name was changed before slots existed and I thought it might be useful to have the KDE3 and 4 versions co-exist, then the slot was added later as an afterthought. It doesn't actually make sense to have multiple versions installed at the same time and the '4' suffix is obsolete. I've attached an update file for profiles/updates/ to do the pkg and slot move. I've also attached the -9999 ebuild. The distfile for kuroo4-0.90.5 is also copied with the kuroo-0.90.5 name so the pkgmoved ebuild will still work.

Created attachment 514198 [details] live ebuild for the KF5/Qt5 version
Nice work! The dependencies for the live ebuild seem bogus though, at least dev-qt/* and kde-frameworks/* dependencies will surely be needed in DEPEND. Not sure about kde-apps/kompare, but you'll know best. You can drop USE=debug and the extra-cmake-modules dependency, both are added by kde5.eclass. Finally, we don't have '# $Header: $' anymore. ;)

I've noticed kuroo reports itself as version 17.12, do you really want to align the kuroo version with KDE Applications releases? That does not really make sense. Not even all actual KDE Applications use the bundle version, but keep their internal versioning.

The paying job has been burning me out and I haven't been keeping up with kuroo. Thanks for cleaning up the 9999 ebuild before committing to the main tree. That was a lazy first pass running Machael Palimaka's ebuild helper scripts and just pasting everything into (R)DEPEND. You're right that kdesu and kompare are just RDEPENDS, though I'd like to reduce the build dependencies a bit too. As far as the version I was just moving to a <year>.<month>.<release number> model since the 0.90.x version numbers didn't really mean anything. The next set of updates should hopefully be 18.2.
Thanks for checking back - sure getting rid of kdelibs4support would be the next step, but does not block a first KF5 release. We have about 30 days before masking kdelibs4 becomes feasible.
ping - do you need to get anything done before cutting a new release?
