Public bug reported: We would like to update Qt to 6.9.2 in Questing.
It is obvious this is quite late, but there are some factor that motivate us to get this done. 1) Qt 6.9.2 is the latest stable release, which is still active and will receive further bugfixes. It is however at the .2 point release relatively mature and tested and widely adopted at this point in other distos. The current Qt 6.8 in Questing is however EOL, and will not get further fixes. 2) Qt 6.9 is now the minium Qt version projects such as KDE are setting for their projects, so if we wish to backport some newer things for Kubuntu (and maybe other flavours), having 6.9 will facilitate this. This is late in the cycle due do (a) manpower; having lost one of the main Qt packagers/contributors in Ubuntu for the time being and (b) Debian being delayed in making progress on new Qt due to Trixie freeze and release. However I/we will commit to getting this done and dealing with any issue that might come as a result. So I respectfully request that the release team approve this FFe. Packages are being prepared in: https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa- service/+archive/ubuntu/4982/+packages and can be landed once some have published and a few riscv64 builds are completed. ** Affects: qt6-base (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2125184 Title: [FFe] Qt 6.9.2 into Questing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt6-base/+bug/2125184/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
