Description Esteve Varela Colominas 2024-09-16 08:40:03 UTC
What it says on the tin. I don't expect a qt6 program to rely on a singular qt5 library, so this feels like a typo, unless I'm missing something?
Comment 1 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2024-09-16 09:37:24 UTC
Yeah, that doesn't look intentional:

        qt6? ( dev-qt/qtbase:6[gui,widgets] )
        !qt6? ( dev-qt/qtprintsupport:5[cups] )
        dev-qt/qtprintsupport:5[cups] <- duplicate

On a side-clarification for anyone that don't know, [gui,widgets] that the first dependency does enables qtprintsupport on qtbase (which is fine), while qtbase[cups] is typically not necessary unless this does something special.
Comment 2 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2024-09-16 09:39:18 UTC
Also, may want to consider just dropping qt5 entirely if want to simply the ebuild.

Posted on gentoo-dev some time ago that it's time to do away with optional qt5 support.

    app-text/xpdf: Drop IUSE qt6 (Qt5 build option)
    
    The question remains why we added back an old PDF toolkit with plenty
    of known security holes fixed by poppler since forking XPDF-3.
    
    Yeah right, "fixed in xpdf-5" which has not become a thing since 2022.
    
    But at the very least it must not block Qt5 cleanup. Held my nose and
    just dropped that.
