Good morning Ben, Question about this if you don't mind. I was checking the Fedora list, and noticed that there was potentially some old packages from Qt5 that potentially don't need to be there. On top of that, I assume that maintaining that list is quite taxing as dependencies change every release.
Is there a plan to maybe use the package manager to download the build dependencies instead? For example, in our case, you can install a package's build dependencies with dnf (dnf builddep). We could provide you with a list of frameworks/gear/plasma packages. This would make it virtually foolproof.
