Qt is a cross-platform application and UI framework for developers
using C++ or QML, a CSS/JavaScript-like language.
With Qt, code can be reused efficiently to target multiple platforms
with one code base. The modular C++ class library and developer tools
easily enables developers to create applications for one platform and
easily build and run to deploy on another platform.
Qt5: Update to 5.15.17 (getting down to the end)
Upstream standard support for Qt5 is officially over. [1] In short,
that means get your ports off of Qt5 ASAP, especially end-user
applications. FreeBSD deprecation of Qt5 is coming soon! It will likely
be a year of lead time, but please help in the meantime and remove qt5
flavors and child ports whenever possible.
www/qt5-webengine has been updated to 5.15.19 with security patches up to
Chromium 135.0.7049.95. It's unclear at this point if further security
patches will be publically available. The Qt5 WebEngine component,
however, is and forever will be based on Chromium 87.0.4280.144, which
is over 4 years old. Props to upstream for their backports over all
these years and making them publically available (probably more to do
with licensing constraints than anything, but hey).
We otherwise depend on KDE as our direct upstream to roll our distfiles,
which we have been hosting locally for over 3 years. Since Qt upstream
drops the LGPL releases of Qt 5.15.x a year later, there's no guarantee
KDE will rebase their patchset over the next year for the remaining two
.18 and .19 releases. This might be the last update for Qt5 on FreeBSD.

Qt: Switch Qt5 to use KDE's Qt patch collection
From [1]
What's this?
This is a set of git repositories based on the last public
commits available for Qt 5.15 branches with a curated collection
of patches on top to ensure open source products can be used
comfortably until users transition to their Qt 6-based ports.
Which patches does it include?
This collection of patches includes patches that fix at least
one of the following:
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
databases/qt5-sqldrivers-mysql: fix against mysql 5.7.34
In mysql 5.7.34 binding a parameter to a 0-sized buffer triggers
an assert() -- previously this was DBG_ASSERT. This triggers
crashes in databases/akonadi in particular, which binds blobs of
size 0. This patch allows akonadi with the default mysql to
start (at all) again.
The patch file previously held a Qt4-era patch which had long
ago had a better patch applied upstream (the comment in the
patch refers to that). The old stuff has been removed, leaving
only the parameter-fix.
Update Qt5 to 5.15
This is a major upgrade of the Qt libraries [1], [2].
* People that use upgrading mechanisms with incomplete dependency handling
(portmaster & Co) should make sure to manually remove the existing Qt
packages to guarantee a safe upgrade. Keep in mind, that Qt does not like if
you have an incomplete upgrade.
* This version of Qt drops support for OpenSSL 1.0 -- this means that there
won't be any binary packages for Qt5 provided by the FreeBSD package builders
for FreeBSD 11.x anymore -- and the same for *all* the ports depending on
net/qt5-network [3]. If you cannot upgrade to a more recent FreeBSD
version (12.x, 13.x), you will need to build Qt5 from ports while switching
to an SSL implementation from ports.

Update Qt5 to 5.12.1
Release announcement:
https://blog.qt.io/blog/2019/02/01/qt-5-12-1-released/
Changelog:
https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_5.12.1_Change_Files
- A change was required to qt-dist.mk to always pass LOCALBASE to qmake,
as Qt5 has been installed to a prefix for some time now, there should
not be any harm in that, with respect to it picking up installed versions
of itself during build.

Fix Qt5 symbol version scripts to put the catch-all clause first. When
a symbol matches multiple clauses the last one takes precedence. If the
catch-all is last it captures everything. In the case of Qt5 libraries
this caused all symbols to have a Qt_5 label while some should have
Qt_5_PRIVATE_API. This only affects lld because GNU ld always gives the
catch-all lowest priority.
Older versions of Qt5Webengine exported some memory allocation symbols from
the bundled Chromium. Version 5.9 stopped exporting these [1] but the
symbols were kept as weak wrappers for the standard allocation functions to
maintain binary compatibility. [2][3] The problem is that the call to the
standard function in these weak wrappers is only resolved to the standard
function if there's a call to this standard function in other parts of
Qt5Webengine, because only then is there a non-weak symbol that takes
precedence over the weak one. If there's no such non-weak symbol the call

Comment on patch for databases/qt5-sqldrivers-mysql
Add a note to the patch for MariaDB-compatibility on how to do it
without ifdefs, which therefore would track changes in MariaDB
definitions (if it follows the MySQL change) automatically.
Fix build of the Qt SQL plugins for MySQL against MariaDB 10.
Recent MySQL code has deprecated the my_bool type, so r469165
added a check for that recent version. MariaDB pretends to be
MySQL, and has an even newer version, which nonetheless hasn't
taken over the drop-my_bool-type change. So my_bool still exists
there. Assume, for now, that MariaDB has my_bool regardless,
to fix incompatibilities reported after PR227813 was closed.

Update the Qt5 ports to 5.10.1.
The work was done by tcberner and myself, with thanks to antoine for the
exp-run.
Not a lot to report compared to other Qt5 updates:
* net/qt5-network is still broken with LibreSSL. I said this in a commit
message ages ago but it bears repeating: upstream is open to adding support
for LibreSSL, but someone needs to step up to maintain it upstream, otherwise
things will continue to be broken all the time.
* www/qt5-webengine is a huge monster that is terrible to update, just like
www/chromium itself is. We (kde@) have decided to keep using the 5.9 series
for the time being, as it should be compatible with the rest of Qt anyway. It
was updated to 5.9.5, the latest 5.9 release at the time of writing.

databases/qt4-mysql-plugin & databases/qt5-sqldrivers-mysql: fix build against
mysql >= 8.0.1.
From the mysql release notes [1]:
Incompatible Change: The my_bool type is no longer used in MySQL source code.
Any third-party code that used this type to represent C boolean variables
should
use the bool or int C type instead.
Note
The change from my_bool to bool means that the mysql.h header file now
requires
a C++ or C99 compiler to compile.

KDE/FreeBSD team is happy to present Qt 5 in ports!
Alberto Villa (avilla@) has done all the hard work to create Qt 5 ports.
Trivial update from 5.2.0-beta1 to 5.2.1 by me.
Special thanks for Adriaan de Groot <groot@kde.org> for his assistance for
Qt-5.2.0 update.
Approved by: portmgr (bapt) (for Mk/bsd.port.mk)
