There was a bit (not much) discussion and we ended up agreeing with this policy The minimum required cmake version for KDE Frameworks will be the maximum of: * The required cmake version of required Qt at that time * The cmake version released 1 year before the required Qt at that time * Updating major cmake versions should be discussed in the frameworks development mailing list and not done automatically because of point B) of this policy Example: required Qt at the time = 6.9 required cmake version of Qt 6.9 = 3.16 Qt 6.9 release date = 2 April 2025 cmake 3.29.0 release date = 21 March 2024 cmake 3.30.0 release date = 19 July 2024 cmake version released 1 year before the required Qt at that time = 3.29 minimum required cmake version = max(3.29, 3.16) -> 3.29 Cheers, Albert P.S: You can see my original email at https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-frameworks-devel/2025-December/123726.html -- Development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
