Qt6: Update to 6.11.1
The kde@ team is pleased to announce Qt 6.11.1 on FreeBSD!
Upstream intoduced a few new modules and we have added them as:
* devel/qt6-openapi
* devel/qt6-tasktree
* x11-toolkits/qt6-canvaspainter

FreeBSD ports changes:
* General: Introduce more tooling for easier updates
* devel/qt6-tools: Install desktop files [1]
PySide6: Update to 6.11.1
As usual, the PySide6 suite has been updated to match the Qt version.
The Shiboken generator has been split into a separate port:
devel/shiboken6-tools. This was an upstream decision, but,
the generator is only needed for the build, allowing our
packages to have a smaller footprint.
PyQt6: Update to 6.11.0
Refactor a few variables and targets from Mk/pyqt.mk to individual
Makefiles to prep for Qt5 removal and reduce obfuscation.
PyQt tools:
devel/py-sip: Update to 6.15.3
devel/py-qt6-sip: Update to 13.11.1

thentenaar-motif*: Repocopy open-motif* to thentenaar-motif*
A fork of open-motif is now being developed. It will eventually replace
open-motif but development is too active to replace open-motif for fear
of breaking many ports.
x11-toolkits/hyprtoolkit: Add port: Modern C++ Wayland-native GUI toolkit
Hyprtoolkit is designed to be a small, simple, and modern C++ toolkit
for making wayland GUI apps, with a few goals:
- Simple C++ API for making a GUI app
- Smooth animations
- Easy usage
- Simple system theming

x11-toolkits/libgedit-gtksourceview: new port
libgedit-gtksourceview is a library that extends GtkTextView, the standard
GTK widget for multiline text editing. It adds support for syntax
highlighting, undo/redo, file loading and saving, search and replace, a
completion system, printing, displaying line numbers, and other features
typical of a source code editor.
x11-toolkits/shared-desktop-ontologies: Remove expired port
2025-03-31 x11-toolkits/shared-desktop-ontologies: Abandonedware, not used by
KDE for a long time
x11-toolkits/Xaw3d: Rename to libXaw3d
This is in line with what freedesktop.org calls Xaw3d. And this is in
preparation to update libXaw3d to the freedesktop.org maintained
version.
The reason we are doing this is the Slackware version is unmaintained.

x11-toolkits/wlroots: always add version suffix
Prevent dependency churn (e.g., 1b744b687e87, 20de9a1b52e1) during
future minor updates. Upstream API is versioned since 0.18, so consumers
and external CI should depend on a pinned package to avoid bumps.

Qt6: Update to 6.8.1
December 02, 2024
We (Qt upstream) have released Qt 6.8.1 today. As a patch release,
Qt 6.8.1 does not introduce new features but contains more than 550 bug
fixes, security updates, and other improvements on top of Qt 6.8.0
release. See more information about the most important changes and bug
fixes from the Qt 6.8.1 release note.
Announcement: https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-6.8.1-released
Release note:
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtreleasenotes.git/about/qt/6.8.1/release-note.md
We (kde@) skipped shipping Qt 6.8.0 due to waiting for a compatible
version of PyQt to be released, but here are the announcements and
release notes from Qt 6.8.0.
Announcement: https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-6.8-released
Release note:
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtreleasenotes.git/about/qt/6.8.0/release-note.md
PySide6: Update to 6.8.0.2
PySide6 and its related components have been updated alongside the Qt
release for compatibility. Older versions will not build with Qt 6.8.x.
Announcement: https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-for-python-release-6.8
PyQt6: Update to 6.8.0
This release also introduces x11-toolkits/py-qt6-graphs, python bindings
for the Qt Graphs module. As with PySide6, older versions of PyQt6 will
not build with Qt 6.8.x.
Support tools like py-sip and py-qtbuilder have also been updated to their
latest versions.
Announcement: https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/news/PyQt_v6.8.0_Released
Special thanks to Kenneth Raplee for testing and to SponiX for providing
access to build hardware!

x11-toolkits/py-qt[56]-chart: Rename to *-charts
Move x11-toolkits/py-qt[56]-chart to x11-toolkits/py-qt[56]-charts to be
consistent with the names of their C++ counterparts.
Qt has always pluralized the Charts module, but PyQt didn't pluralize it
until Qt6. With the upcomming addition of the PyQt Graphs module, keeping
this singular would be even more awkwark.
While here:
Add all pyqt5 components except webengine to the devel/py-qt5 metaport
to be consistent with the devel/py-qt6 metaport.
PyQt: Update to latest versions
PyQt5:
- devel/py-qt5-pyqt: Update to 5.15.11
- graphics/py-qt5-3d: Add port
- net/py-qt5-networkauth: Update to 5.15.6
- www/py-qt5-webengine: Update to 5.15.7
- x11-toolkits/py-qt5-chart: Update to 5.15.7
- x11-toolkits/py-qt5-datavis3d: Add port
PyQt6:
- devel/py-qt6-pyqt: Update to 6.7.1
Build tools:
- devel/sip: Update to 6.8.6
- devel/py-qt5-sip: Update to 12.15.0
- devel/py-qt6-sip: Update to 13.8.0
- devel/py-qtbuilder: Update to 1.16.4
The build tools are now all licensed BSD2CLAUSE and have been converted
to PEP517.
x11-toolkits/py-kivy: resurrect the port and update to version 2.3.0
Refresh dependencies and convert to USES=+pytest (this also allows to
drop `do-test' target). Unfortunately, not all tests currently pass:
15 failed, 788 passed, 42 skipped, 1 xfailed, 8 warnings, 70 errors

multimedia/gstreamer1: Update to 1.24.8
Mk/Uses/gstreamer.mk:
- Sort, fix whitespace issues and typos
- Promote several common variables to improve maintainer QOL
* There's now no need to set manually set PORTVERSION nor
SOVERSION in several Makefiles
* This will help to prevent not updating some components
* A note has been added, however, to remind maintainers
to remake distinfo for certain ports
- Improve documentation
multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins-webrtc:
- New port split from multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins-bad
- multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins-rust has been updated
to reflect this change
net/gstreamer1-plugins-sctp:
- New port split from multimedia/gstreamer1-plugins-bad
x11-toolkits/gstreamer1-plugins-qt5:
- Moved here from graphics/gstreamer1-plugins-qt to
align with its new Qt6 counterpart
x11-toolkits/gstreamer1-plugins-qt6:
- New port: GStreamer Qt6 QML videosink plugin
*/*:
- Improve Makefile order and formatting
- Sorry for the repo churn, but not fixing this would just lead to more
poorly formatted gstreamer ports in the future via copypasta

KDE: Add Ports for the upcoming KDE Plasma Desktop 6 (beta1)
KDE's 6th Megarelease - Beta 1
Wednesday, 29 November 2023
En route to the new Plasma, Frameworks and Gear
Every few years we port the key components of our software to a new
version of Qt, taking the opportunity to remove cruft and leverage the
updated features the most recent version of Qt has to offer us.
It has been nearly 10 years since the last big release of our flagship
Plasma desktop environment, and the time has come again. KDE is making
available today the Beta version of all the software we will include in
a megarelease scheduled for the end of February 2024.
To ensure all parts of KDE's software stack are working together, we are
releasing all our major bundles at the same time. Today sees the
continuation of that journey with the Beta releases of Plasma 6, KDE
Frameworks 6 and the KDE Gear bundle of apps.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| This is a very early preview intended for developers and testers only. |
| We hope it will be picked up by rolling unstable distros, but it is far |
| from being ready for day-to-day use yet. |
