Description cruzki 2024-03-01 22:23:03 UTC
Created attachment 886503 [details]
Result of $ grep ":5" */*24.02.0.ebuild > porting.txt in portage tree under kde-apps folder

Several packages from kde-apps-24.02.0 continue to depend on qt5 and kde-frameworks-5 instead to depend to qt6 and kde-frameworks-6.

This causes portage to try to install both qt5 and 6 and kde-framework-5 and 6 at the same time and usually to fail at compile time. Attached is the list of packages.

Changing the slot to :6 and raising ${QTMIN} and ${KFMIN} usually solve the problem but in some cases, dependencies have to be also updated (mostly qt change of names).

We know about these. Many of them are NOT yet ported to KF6/Qt6 upstream, or if they are, upstream are not yet recommending we build with them.

If you're getting compile-time failures, please file individual bugs for those.

I also don't recommend you try use it on stable yet, just ~arch.

What you're describing is not a bug.

Compile time failures are a bug - which you should file individually. With logs.

See how fast a proper bug can get your problem fixed: bug 926057

If you've seen one of those, try to model your next bug after the example above.
