IMHO, unless some wants to contribute here, it can go for good. TBH it was not just porting to Qt5 but also architectural issues in later versions which I refused to package the way they were designed (depending on build-time config and weird 3rd party libs). And I don't have time nor much interest to continue here. Thanks for pushing, I am making this request RFA for now and it can become RoM by the time you are RoMing qt4. Best regards, Eduard. -- <weasel> .oO( Graphischer installier fuer Debian: ein xterm und drinnen d-i ) <Ganneff> weasel: ATERM! <weasel> s/xterm/x-terminal-emulator/
