Bug 644380 – <dev-util/xxdiff-4.0.1_p20170622 depends on deprecated Qt4

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas Sturmlechner 2018-01-12 21:37:26 UTC]

Qt4 is dead and going away. Apparently, git master is (5.0b1 'development version') is already Qt5 based, but has not seen a release. Maybe we could package a snapshot if upstream is not making a move in the near future.

[Comment 1 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) 2018-01-12 23:06:08 UTC]

Sounds good. I'll try to snap something.

[Comment 2 Andreas Sturmlechner 2018-01-16 00:59:16 UTC]

Thanks for looking into it.

Debian did the same, apparently: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=875241
