Change Details

KDE curates a git-mirror [1] with additional patches for Qt5. A patched version of Qt will be required by future Plasma Desktop versions, and also other software like qgis will likely make use of this. How it works: * qt-dist.mk now has some entries called _KDE_${_QT_DIST} if this is set, a generated tarball from the git repo is used. The value of said variable is the git-patch level of that dist. So for exmaple `x11-toolkits/qt5-gui` creates a package ` qt5-gui-5.15.2p263` as `qt/qt/qtbase` contains 263 additional patches. Otherwise, the normal upstream Qt tarball is used. * COMMENT is extended to include the nod to KDE. * The tarballs were created using `git archive` and uploaded to LOCAL/tcberner. => this could be included as a target in qt-dist.mk to automatically create new tarballs This is still WIP... but everything (apart from qt5-quick3d, due to assimp) should build and install fine.

From [1] What's this? This is a set of git repositories based on the last public commits available for Qt 5.15 branches with a curated collection of patches on top to ensure open source products can be used comfortably until users transition to their Qt 6-based ports. Which patches does it include? This collection of patches includes patches that fix at least one of the following: * Security issues * Crashes * Functional defects We only include patches that have been approved upstream in the Qt project. If a patch cannot be merged upstream for technical reasons (e.g. the class no longer exists), it can also be merged. The patches to merge will be decided based on their relevance towards Open Source products and their viability. [1] https://community.kde.org/Qt5PatchCollection
