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:

x11-toolkits/qt5-declarative: split out 'test' parts into new port
kde@ has been focused recently on reducing the load of "unnecessary"
runtime dependencies, to allow third party distributions to have a
leaner installation.
One part of this effort was to make qt5-testlib a "build only"
dependency.
Unfortunately, parts of qt5-declarative link against testlib (to provide
test functionality for declarative parts).
This lead to an unfortunate loop of pkg-autoremove removing testlib, and
then pkg-update adding it again (as it was an improperly registered
dependency).
This change splits out the "test"-parts into its own port. Thereby
making testlib not even a required build-time dependency for
x11-toolkits/qt5-delcarative.

*: (KDE ports) tidy up dependencies
Go another round with the dependency-cleanup:
- ECM and doctools are still more only a build-dep
- Qt testlibs is a build-dep
This touches plenty of ports outside of KDE Frameworks
that did **not** list their full dependencies and could
get away with it because frameworks pulled in too much.
Only define USE_LDCONFIG in devel/qt5-core
All the qt5-ports share the same library directory. devel/qt5-core is dependet
on
by all others.
So there is no need to add identical entries to libdata/ldconfig, and restart
the
ldconfig service on every pkg change of those ports.

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

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.

Fix permissions in installed Qt5 header files
For the qt5-* ports bsd.qt.mk sets EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS, and
thereby does not get the normal default value of
--no-same-owner --no-same-permissions
passed when extracting. This lead to for example header files
being installed (i.e. copied), with permissions group write
permissions.
Manually append that to the bsd.qt.mk shenanigans (also do the
same in www/qt5-webchannel, which opts out of the bsd.qt.mk value)

Update Qt5 ports to 5.9.3.
This took quite a lot of time because Qt's own build system underwent
several changes in 5.8.0 that took a while to adapt to.
And, of course, qt5-webengine is a behemoth that we need to patch like crazy
due to its bundling of Chromium. In fact, most of the Chromium patches in
qt5-webengine have been imported with no changes from www/chromium@433510
("www/chromium: update to 56.0.2924.87").
New port: accessibility/qt5-speech
Bigger changes to Qt5 ports we had to make:
- Qt now allows using a configure.json file to define configuration options
and specify configuration checks that can be done when qmake is invoked.

Update Qt5 to 5.7.1, and unify the Qt4 and Qt5 ports some more
* Update Qt5 to 5.7.1
* Move Qt4 binaries to lib/qt4/bin
* Move Qt5 libraries to lib/qt5/lib
By moving the libraries we should finally be able to get rid of the inplace
upgrade bug (see ports bugs 194088, 195105 and 198720): when Qt5's libraries
were lying in /usr/local/lib, which would often get added by pkgconfig to the
linker paths via dependencies, the already installed libraries were linked
against, instead of the ones that were being built. This forced us to make
sure, that -L${WRKSRC}/lib was always coming before -L/usr/local/lib in the
linker flags. With this change this should no longer be the case.
* Rename some ports to match the rest (foo-qtX -> qtX-foo)
* Depend on new port misc/qtchooser [see UPDATING & CHANGES]
