FWIW I did the upgrade yesterday, as it's now required (as you know) for the live-git kde-*/*-9999 packages in the kde overlay. Timing happened to be a bit rough as I had been working through a bunch of upstream kde git-master breakage over the last couple weeks and still had a couple critical packages that I had /just/ figured out how to get to rebuild... when I had to do the 5.15.3 upgrade too, but after pulling an all-nighter last night, I had everything at least building again early this morning. But the freshly upgraded plasma-wayland wouldn't actually run, even after reboot, etc. Glad I have weston as a backup! =:^) After work (without sleep) today, I synced and did the normal @world deep- update, then smart-live-rebuilt todays updates, and luckily there weren't additional unfixed breaking updates in the last ten days, and I could FINALLY get back into a fully updated in-sync-with-upstream live-git- master kde, on top of the fresh qt 5.15.3, the first time I've been fully updated and operational since I was last in sync March 7. =:^) I still have some bug fallout to file, gentoo/kde-overlay or upstream, after I recover with a bit more sleep (and update my backups at my new known-working state), and I can't say the upgrade was at all smooth tho that's timing as much as anything, but I *CAN* report my normal plasma- wayland session and everything I've tested so far is working fine with qt 5.15.3 now! =:^) And of course if I didn't enjoy the challenge and edginess of a bit of breakage every now and again I'd not be running ~arch plus live-git of all of kde along with a few other misc packages... It sucks when it breaks but there's nothing like the high of FINALLY having a fully working fully in- sync system after struggling with it for a couple weeks. Thanks for both the new qt and all those live kde-*/*-9999 ebuilds. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
