Description Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2023-10-14 20:22:30 UTC
QtScript is deprecated since Qt 5.5, last commit in upstream dev repo happened in 2021-10-26.

Its replacements are QtQml and QJSEngine:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qjsengine.html

Upstreams still depending on dev-qt/qtscript:5 should be told now to port away from it if they aren't aware already. Optional usage should be dropped if possible.
