Hello,
If it's a lot of work and/or manpower is limited (it's always, isn't it?!) it
may be better to do a Qt-6-only port. That's what we're just doing for
KPhotoAlbum.
That's what I tried at first, but it soon became clear that while actual
porting is mostly mechanical, making Krita actually work with Qt6 is going to
be a long process. We cannot afford to not be able to release Krita again for
half a year or longer, so we have to find a way to keep releasing a working
Krita while keeping the Qt6 port up to date in the face of huge projects like
the text shape refactoring.
I agree, this is what concerns me with Kraft as well. It's users are
also not particularly bleeding edge, so until most distros are shipping
and working with KF6 having a maintained KDE 5 version is valuable.

Klaas
