Hi, Qt6/KF6 has been around long enough that most KDE projects have been ported to it. Qt5 is increasing degrees of dead, and any project not ported to Qt6 is likely equally dead. With that in mind I propose that we declare unmaintained and archive all KDE projects that still don't build with Qt6 (unless there's signs of active development or they are otherwise relevant). In particular this would apply to the following projects: Never released: khipu kde-nomodeset kije kirogi tikzkit pikasso kdev-css kdev-embedded kdev-executebrowser kdev-krazy2 kdev-mercurial kdev-ruby kdev-upload kdev-verapp kdev-xdebug samba-mounter polkit-kde-kcmodules-1 No release in a long time: libqgit2 kdb kproperty kreport kexi kalternatives Formerly part of KDE Gear: cervisia I have excluded Okteta and latte-dock since there is recent activity. Any thoughts/concerns on this? Cheers Nico
