Hi,
Qt6/KF6 has been around long enough that most KDE projects have been
ported to it. Qt5 is increasing degrees of dead, and any project not
ported to Qt6 is likely equally dead.
With that in mind I propose that we declare unmaintained and archive all
KDE projects that still don't build with Qt6 (unless there's signs of
active development or they are otherwise relevant).
In particular this would apply to the following projects:
Never released:
khipu
kde-nomodeset
kije
kirogi
tikzkit
pikasso
kdev-css
kdev-embedded
kdev-executebrowser
kdev-krazy2
kdev-mercurial
kdev-ruby
kdev-upload
kdev-verapp
kdev-xdebug
samba-mounter
polkit-kde-kcmodules-1
No release in a long time:
libqgit2
kdb
kproperty
kreport
kexi
kalternatives
Formerly part of KDE Gear:
cervisia
I have excluded Okteta and latte-dock since there is recent activity.
Any thoughts/concerns on this?
Cheers
Nico
