    Phoronix: Qt 5.15.4 LTS Release Now Available As Open-Source

    Back in March marked the release of Qt 5.15.3 as open-source, one year after it was released to commercial customers of The Qt Company. Today a similar Qt 5.15.4 open-source release is now available, one year after its commercial release...

    I did not take it that way, they just pointed out some pitfalls with open source code. As a developer it might be easy to dismiss this claim, but a company's management may weigh things differently.

      100% agreement. So many times people don't realize that if you do include a 3rd party component and there is no support for that component then the weight falls right back onto you. The whole log4j fiasco is a perfect example of this.

        I'm looking forward to that monitor turning off bug being fixed that hangs Qt applications in KWin Wayland session.

          if you're able to reproduce it, file a bug report.

              I experienced that bug on Arch in the ~4 weeks that I was using it in March/April of this year, but now I'm on openSUSE Tumbleweed and I can't reproduce it anymore. Come to think of it: before Arch, I was on Void, but couldn't reproduce it either. Same exact KDE version on all three distros. So it seems to me like it's an Arch-specific bug.

                I'm getting in Debian. It would be weird for it to be distro specific. Was Qt version the same for you?

                  Report a problem and wait one year after for the solution lol.

                    It looks like it was fixed on my end after the Qt 5.15.3 update (I think), as I indicated in this other bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448275
                    I can't test it again at the moment as I'm on a different PC with a different desktop environment.
