Actually, it might be a good idea to handle this separately? We could expect Qt 4.7.0 being released on 1st week of September .

Kubuntu is staying with kdepim 4.4.x for it's next release. I understand Fedora is likely to do this as well. I think there's roughly a zero percent chance of it being ready for a Debian stable release. Scott K -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk

I would estimate 1 at the end of August (sooner than 1 month), 2 at the end of September, 3 at the end of October. We should stress to RT than KDE point releases won't have any effect on the rest of the archive, not even shlibs bump of anything (example 4.4.4 -> 4.4.5 which went flawlessly). They have nothing to worry about. > The 4.5.0 release is in 2 days and we are far from having packages ready, > so as Modestas pointed, we could ship then wherever we have something > ok for general public at qt-kde.d.n and later upload 4.5.1 directly to the > archive. > 4.5.1 is supposed to be released in the 2nd week of September. As I said above, I expect it to be released way sooner. Quoting dirk: Unfortunately it seems that lots of fixes are being backported at the moment, so we have to delay the rest to an early 4.5.1 release it seems. > About KDE 4.5, gkiagia, Modestas: what have you found so far?

Nop, there will definitely be removals and soname bumps out of KDE SC (some workspace libs, libkonq5, kdegraphics libs). A couple of packages will need to be binNMUed. That's definitely digikam (maybe new upstream release even), kphotoalbum, ktorrent, konq-plugins, kmess, kdiff3, probably a few more. > Finally, it is kdepim.

My vote goes to kdepim 4.4.x stack. kdepim-akonadi will be too fresh and untested for stable Debian release. -- Modestas Vainius signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk

Now the next step is mailing the release team, I have voluntered with this part, but as as you know, I have not been around lately and I need some help recollecting information. The plan is: shipping into the next stable release with KDE 4.5.x where x is hopefully at least >=2 with Qt 4.7. The 4.5.0 release is in 2 days and we are far from having packages ready, so as Modestas pointed, we could ship then wherever we have something ok for general public at qt-kde.d.n and later upload 4.5.1 directly to the archive. 4.5.1 is supposed to be released in the 2nd week of September. Fabo, do you know when is Qt 4.7 being released? :) I have not idea about approx dates and we need them if we are about to tell our plans to the release team. Actually, it might be a good idea to handle this separately? About KDE 4.5, gkiagia, Modestas: what have you found so far? As I have understood it, we should have not problems with the soname bumps/additions/ removals (if any) out of KDE (SC). Also, I know we have one new package neeeded, grantlee, but it is already in the archive (thanks to bricks!). Finally, it is kdepim. The "official" planning currently says they will skip 4.5.0 and release with 4.5.1 and well, the changes will be big. Should we keep 4.4.x anyway?
