KDE on RHEL 8.2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that RHEL 8.2 is out, those of you who are KDE users might notice
that you cannot update certain things due to the change in qt5.
Mainly that qt5 changed from qt5-5.11 to qt5-5.12.
This is actually a good thing.  qt5-5.12 is an LTS release and has
many bugfixes.
The downside is that certain key packages need to be updated and rebuilt.

This was known about beforehand, but due to the nature of EPEL,
nothing could be rebuilt on EPEL8 until RHEL 8.2 was publicly
released.

Current Plan:
Rebuild all of the current KDE Plasma Desktop that is in EPEL8.
Updating all packages that are possible to update.  There are a few
that cannot be updated, but I believe that is about 5 out of 300.
I expect this to take a week and a half, and should be done by May 13.
At this point, these rebuilt packages will go into epel-testing.

The majority of packages will be at these versions.  Except for qt5,
the vast majority of the packages will match those of Fedora 32.
qt5* 5.12
plasma* 5.18
kf5* 5.68 / 19.12
apps 5.18 / 19.12

Thank you for your patience.
If you wish to open bugzilla's for certain packages, that is fine.
Feel free to do that, and assign them to me.
