Some packages are not available anymore on Ubuntu 20.04.

That troubles me. Since Ubuntu is built on Debian Unstable, that means that we are probably no more than two Debian releases away from a time when it will no longer be possible to build Rivendell under Debian.

Debian used to be my platform of choice for Rivendell, but lately I've been using the CentOS installers. The one recent occasion I had to build Rivendell on Debian was on a Raspberry Pi 4, as an experiment. Rivendell 2.x would not compile, and while I did get Rivendell 3.x installed and running, the process was more complicated and there are a lot of new dependencies.

Do I understand correctly that just months after Fred completed the long process of porting Rivendell to Qt4, Ubuntu has dropped Qt4?
