Comment 2 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis 2017-05-16 11:24:18 UTC
This ebuild currently forcefully uses compilation in C++ 1998 mode due to qt4-build-multilib.eclass having:
append-cxxflags -std=gnu++98

Switching to C++ >=2011 mode is sufficient to fix compilation of dev-qt/qtcore:4.
However all of Qt 4 probably should be built in the same mode to avoid potential problems, and currently there is no complete fix for dev-qt/qtwebkit:4 (bug #618640).

That's not going to happen. Looks like icu >= 59 will have to stay masked for a long time (I am going to change the dep in qt{core,webkit} to =58* though).
Comment 5 Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis 2017-05-17 18:51:07 UTC
dev-qt/qtcore:4[icu] seems to have no reverse dependencies, so this flag could be masked for dev-qt/qtcore:4.

ICU 59 fixes some security bugs, so it should not be masked for long time.

It's now masked in the 17.0 profiles (which are where ICU 59 will be unmasked).

So I consider this bug "done"... if you disagree please reopen.

I believe this was not done, at least the icu dependency for qtcore is not fixed to any version number in the current tree.

Done now. Thanks for reminding me.
