Hi, referring to
https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-6-additional-libraries-via-package-manager
it looks like that the situation regarding Qt binary packaging and distribution around the time 6.0 will be shipped will look like this:
1) Binary (*) Qt Essentials from the installer, OSS+Comm - QtCore, QtWidgets, QtQML, etc. 2) Binary (*) Qt Addons from the installer, OSS+Comm - QtSQL, QtQuick3D, etc. 3) Binary (*) extras from the installer, OSS+Comm - QtCreator, MinGW, OpenSSL, CMake, etc. 4) Source and/or binary Qt Addons from the Marketplace, OSS+Comm - QtPDF, QtCharts, etc. 4a) Non-software products from the Marketplace - E.g. TQC Trainings 5) Source Qt Addons from the Package Manager, OSS(+Comm?) - Qt3D, QtImageFormats - to be built manually(*) One can install the source, but they're for debugging, one doesn't build them
Am I getting the complete picture? And am I the only one who finds this extremely confusing? How is the decision regarding what-goes-where made?
