Tarballs which are needed as Qt 5 and Qt 6 Builds

These projects provide supporting functions to KDE apps so to ensure Qt 5 based KDE apps continue to function distros should build them twice, once with Qt 5 and once with Qt 6.

  • kio-extras: From 22.04 onwards it uses Qt6. A KF5-based tarball will be released separately for support of KF5-based KIO apps. Build kio-extras-kf5 with -DBUILD_ACTIVITIES=OFF -DKF6_COMPAT_BUILD=ON
  • kio-zeroconf
  • kio-gdrive
  • libkgapi still needs a Qt 5 version for kio-gdrive and a Qt 6 version for pim bits (it's co-installable except for the sasl plugin, which can be disabled for one Qt version via -DBUILD_SASL_PLUGIN=OFF (since 24.01.95/23.08.5 or 3f293301)
  • libkcddb needs a Qt 5 version for k3b and a Qt 6 version for kio-audiocd.
  • libcompactdisc
  • kaccounts-integration: a Qt5 build of the library part is needed for kf5-purpose and kf5-kio-gdrive. Use -DKF6_COMPAT_BUILD=ON to build that. Available since Beta 2
  • libkexiv2
  • ksanecore: Qt 6 build needed by Skanpage and Qt 5 build by Skanlite and others (libksane can be Qt 5 only for now as nothing uses it with Qt 6 but apps such as Digikam will be moving to Qt 6 soon)
  • libkdcraw still needs a Qt 5 build for e.g. Krita, kphotoalbum

Dependencies that need updating

Many dependencies used by our apps now need newer versions due to the switch to Qt 6, distros will now need to build these for Qt 6.

Dependencies that are not yet ready

  • kunifiedpush - Do NOT ship this, it requires KDE to set up a suitable server and none exists yet.
  • Alpaka - Language Learning Model used in Ruqola and kdepim-addons, not yet ready
