I think the main problem was I was continuing to use the old translation tools without even realizing it, which made you think somebody still cared about Qt4. I've been building with Qt5 for years. I have no other reason to even have Qt4 other than checking to see that Qt4 builds still work, which I haven't actually done in years anyway. So far so good, I updated and did a clean rebuild. Now all I have to do is avoid breaking the translations again. I'll pay more attention next time. -- D.

[Rosegarden-user] End of Qt4 support: r15334
As of today, Rosegarden will no longer support Qt4. [r15334] will be the last commit to support Qt4. Qt5 will be required from now on. If anyone has issues with this, we can go back and restore Qt4 support fairly easily for a while. cmake support for Qt4 will be maintained for a while, but the build will fail if all you have installed is Qt4. Qt4 itself has been unsupported since 2015. It's time to move on. Translators: Please upgrade your toolchains to Qt5 so that we can drop Qt4 altogether. If you have both installed, you can force Qt5 for each tool you run at the command line by prefixing with QT_SELECT=qt5: $ QT_SELECT=qt5 linguist Ted. -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user

Yeah, I think I'll do the official announcement next. And my next commit will probably break Qt4. It would be easy to fix if someone really wanted us to support Qt4, so I think I can deal with any complaints if they come up.

What took you so long? :)

Ha! Yeah. There isn't really anything in Qt5 that I need, so I
figured I'd just stick to Qt4.
That said, I think my next commit is going to require Qt5.
QSharedPointer::reset() is awfully handy.
Ted.
