They are going unsupported and IIRC also getting out of CI. It's just a matter of time. The 6-12-18 months they will still be buildable and usable are the time to look for an alternative, or to enhance QJSEngine/QWebEngine, so that they are good for KDE. According to qt-interest, some commercial and LGPL users seem to face the same problems, therefore The Qt Company is probably open to enhancements. -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer)
