Description Yaakov Selkowitz 2026-02-19 19:28:26 UTC
krita 6.0.0 is a long-awaited migration to Qt6/KF6.  The second beta just dropped, and GA is expected before F44 final freeze.  KDE SIG would like to get this into F44 Beta for testing purposes.

Additionally, unbeknownst to us, mlt was updated shortly before Beta freeze with a change that dropped Qt5 support.  As the only remaining Qt5 consumer of mlt, krita 5 is particularly impacted, and provides an additional impetus to migrate early.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 2 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2026-02-20 03:27:46 UTC
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 44-beta by Fedora user yselkowitz using the blocker tracking app because:

 krita 6.0 is a long-awaited migration to Qt6/KF6.  The second beta just dropped, and GA is expected before F44 final freeze.  KDE SIG would like to get this into F44 Beta for testing purposes.

Additionally, unbeknownst to us, mlt was updated shortly before Beta freeze to a version that dropped Qt5 support.  As the only remaining Qt5 consumer of mlt, krita 5 is particularly impacted, and provides an additional impetus to migrate early.
