Description

Anyone interested in using the latest Qt release version?

I've been spending around a week in getting my qt5-kde-devel port upgraded to Qt 5.6.0 and to my satisfaction. The deprecation and subsequent removal of QtWebKit made this more of a challenge than it should have been.

A QtWebKit 5.6.0 "community release" does exist, but its packaging is incomplete. However, even after generating the missing files the component will not build for me as a subport (= not as port install qt5-kde-devel-qtwebkit) while the same sequence of commands completes successfully when invoked manually from the shell.

The component does build though as part of a full/monolithic build like it's always been done, so for now that's what qt5-kde-devel does, grabbing the latest compatible qtwebkit sources via github's archive/snapshot feature.

Qt 5.6.1 is out and provides a number of fixes, some of which I had already included as patches in qt5-kde, but also a much-appreciated fix to the issue that generated endless warnings when menus and menuitems were used in multiple menus.

I will test-drive this version for a week or two and then update port:qt5-kde.

Marko, could you change the ticket title please?

Upgrading to Qt 5.7.1 proved relatively uneventful, everything seems to work just fine, include the nec-plus-hacktra qt5-kde-devel-x11 port.
