Upgrading Qt

From Alpine Linux

When Qt gets upgraded between major versions, we have to rebuild some packages due to ABI changes and private API usages. The following is a list of packages to bump on every major (e.g. 6.8.x to 6.9.x) upgrade:

  • kwin (input in login managers)
  • plasma-integration (for plasmashell)
  • layer-shell-qt (for plasmashell)
  • kguiaddons (for plasmashell)
  • libkscreen (for display configuration)
  • powerdevil (for power management KCM)
  • pyside6 (all it's users need to be rebuild as well)

For QtWebengine:

  • angelfish
  • kaccounts-providers
  • signon-ui
