Hi,

I'm trying to update to the most recent version of the sources on a machine that's limited to Qt 5.9 and KF5 5.60.0 (don't ask...)

Going upstream in the master branch git log I found commit #8dc6efc5b3339256e0971deb2082637b8fbc8b31 (aka version 3.2.1.222) that precedes a dependency bump to Qt 5.11 .

But is this really the most recent version of the code to support this old Qt5 version, or should I be looking in one of the other branches?

It doesn't help that the versioning has been polluted by the KF5 Applications versioning scheme...

All that said, my main interest here is to have the newest possible version of "KF5 Illustrator" aka Karbon ... if that component hasn't evolved anyway it may not be worth the effort to rebuild everything once more.

Thanks,
R.
