3 | | Current qt5 port use last 5.15.2 official tarball published to compile source code. |
4 | | |
5 | | Since there is no Qt5.15 LTS tarball published as opensource by Qt team, KDE project has created a own git repository including all official security/improvement collection patches published in Qt5 project. |
6 | | |
7 | | All main Linux distributions start to use this repository as source code reference to maintain the qt5 package as LTS for version > 5.15.2. |
8 | | |
9 | | In digiKam project i used successfully this repository to compile the official Linux AppImage bundle. This allow to fix plenty of bugs in application due to UPSTREAM Qt bugs (as for ex. a compatibility with Mariadb >= 10.6 with Qt Mysql plugin). |

11 | | The bug for digiKam relevant of this improvement is this one : |

15 | | The script used to checkout the KDE repository with AppImage Bundle compilation is here : |

19 | | I highly recommend to use the KDE qt 5.15 LTS repository to maintain the qt5 port in Macports. |
| 3 | Qt5 port stil at 5.15.12 since a long time. It must be updated to last 5.15.14. |
