Fedora should update F32 to QT5.14 an then update QT in F33 Rawhide to 5.15 . would make more sense to do it that way, but you'll hear " But we have to rebuild so many packages " eventually the Packagers wont have anything else to do

Why???

Why???

why? security? thats why, , thats a bit like asking Microsoft " why all the updates for "
also, Features.
maybe if Fedora put there effort into KDE like they do with Gnome, maybe Fedora would gain users back that its lost

Anvil Ms isn't good example in terms of security.

probably not but it was just an example, but even Fedora still hasnt updated to QT 5.14 , they never even did it for Rawhide, i ddunno if its in a COPR repo somewhere, but surely they could at least Test it like they do with gtk4 builds

Anvil Qt is CLA-ware so Red Hat won’t touch it. Red Hat recently reduced their KDE testing because no one wanted to commit the needed resources.

im aware of that, thats only for RHEL, not for Fedora which is a community based distro. its almost the same with Ubuntu, the other SIG looks after the Ubuntu KDE DE

Anvil You are right that KDE is fully deprecated on RHEL (And nonexistent on SLED).

But that’s not what we are discussing. Fedora recently reduced their KDE testing. Like this month.

yeah i know, but i would still think even RHEL still depends on some QT stuff , , i'd have to look through Distrowatch under Redhat Packages to see like this https://distrowatch.com/table.php?di...el-8.1#pkglist
