Hello

Sorry for delay, this mail got stuck in my queue...

There is no port yet, currently I'm busy working on Otter Browser.

Last time I've checked new Plasma APIs (QML only :-/) full port was not possible (built-in editor was too complex). Hopefully I'll have some time to check current state of available APIs in June.

I've created issue for that task:

Dear Michał Dutkiewicz <emd...@gmail.com>,
As you might know the Debian Qt/KDE team are preparing to remove Qt4's WebKit
as announced in [announce].

[announce]
<https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2015/05/msg00001.html>


Basically they are about to get the latest Qt4 point release and upstream is
migrating from WebKit to Bing in the Qt5 series, so they won't have much
upstream support for maintaining Qt4's WebKit.
In order to make this move, all packages directly or indirectly depending on the Qt4's WebKit library have to either get ported to Qt5 or eventually get
removed from the Debian repositories.


Please, let me know if there is a Qt5 port (or plan for it) so that I can
package it.




= Porting =

Some of the Debian Qt/KDE team where involved in various Qt4 to Qt5 migrations [migration] and they know for sure that porting stuff from Qt4 to Qt5 is much
much easier and less painful than it was from Qt3 to Qt4.

They also understand that there is still a lot of software still using Qt4. In
order to ease the transition time they have provided Wheezy backports for
Qt5.

Don't forget to take a look at the C++ API changes page [apichanges]
whenever you start porting your application.
