Hi! Currently those extensions are still part of Qt releases and will follow Qt release cycle, version numbers etc. And same is with vulnerabilities & patches: We will fix those vulnerabilities in next releases and offer a patch for older, supported releases as well. Mixing modules between qt releases (including extensions) shouldn’t be done; it might work but we haven’t tested it.

Hi! It would still be nice to know what the deployment strategies are going to be. It looks like the extension modules are named by Qt version, so there are extension modules for 6.8.2 and 6.9.0. If there is a critical vulnerability, what happens? Will I get a patched extension modules for 6.8.2? Or can I mix my 6.8.2 installation with the extension module for 6.8.3 or 6.9.0? Kind regards Robert Hi! To be honest, I think we don’t have documentation for this, but on the other hand, you shouldn’t need it; those should behave like any module in Qt. Unfortunately, there was a small packaging-related bug, and that caused unnecessary updates in the maintenance tool. In reality, it won’t update anything else than the extension's main node/component. That will be fixed in the next releases. Sorry about that, and thanks for reporting this! br, Jani ________________________________ This message and any attachments are solely for the use of the intended recipients.
