Revision as of 23:30, 26 October 2014
The KDE Applications release which is planned for December 2014 will contain applications which are still based on Qt4 and kdelibs 4.x, and the first stable Qt5+KF5-based release of some others. The decision will be taken on a per-application basis by the maintainers/core developers.
This page aims to provide an overview of the decisions which have been taken already. For some applications, it is important to know if a Qt5+KF5-based of their runtime dependencies (e.g., the Konsole KPart for an embedded terminal) will be available.
Applications which will release their first stable Qt5+KF5-based version in December 2014
| Name of the application | Further information (links to relevant mailing list threads, wiki pages, etc.) |
|---|---|
| Parley | Port is already done together with libkdeedu, which is now called libkeduvocdocument after the rest of the kde edu library was moved or removed. |
| Gwenview | Port started by David Edmundson, merged into master after discussion with Aurelien. |
| Kate/KWrite | Ported since more than a half year to KF5/Qt5, merged into master by Christoph. |
| Kanagram | Ported a few months ago. All on master branch now. |
| Okteta | Ported since more than a year to KF5/Qt5, merged into master by Friedrich. |
| Konsole | Ported for quite a while - It is highly unlikely a new KDE4 version would have any major additions, so we might as well try for KF5 version - will working on merging the framework branch to master |
Applications which will still release a Qt4+kdelibs 4.x-based version in December 2014
| Name of the application | Further information (links to relevant mailing list threads, wiki pages, etc.) |
|---|---|
| KMag | Port in frameworks branch, free of kdelibs4support, but awaits Qt5 port of qaccessibilityclient. |
| KmPlot | Port started in frameworks branch, does not work yet. |
| KolourPaint | Port in frameworks branch, still uses kdelibs4support, but has unresolved major issue with missing tool icons when frameworks integration plugin is not loaded. |
| KRuler | Port in frameworks branch, free of kdelibs4support, but has unresolved issues with window moving. |
Applications for which the decision has not been taken yet
| Name of the application | Further information (links to relevant mailing list threads, wiki pages, etc.) |
|---|---|
| Dolphin | The issue will be discussed on the mailing list once it is known if all required dependencies will have a stable KF5-based release in December. |
| KCalc | Port in frameworks branch, free of kdelibs4support, awaits approval from maintainer. Minor issue with missing configurability of grouping character in QLocale. |
| KCharSelect | Port in frameworks branch, free of kdelibs4support, to be discussed with maintainer. |
