Hi Timothy,

I understand that, but 2 years from now Qt would be around 6.8-6.9 ... possible Qt7?
So I start to have doubt that Debian could ever catch up.
Although you are right, that _I_ can install Qt6 from sources, but I cannot expect that from all my users. They just want to use it.

So I am a bit disappointed with this now, although I would like to pay my respect and send kudos for all Debian people, since they are doing an enormous job.

I.

    Hi,

    What do we think about "accessibility" in this thread? The MSAA like
    helping for visually challenged, or the global avaiblity (and
    acceptance) of QT?

    As of Qt 5.15, (and Qt 6.4.x lately) you do not have to make the hard
    choice between responsive webpage or desktop application, since
    you can
    generate both from the same QT source code. The native is native, the
    browser based using WebAssembly technology. (I think MSAA is not yet
    supported for WebAssembly till this date, but please double check
    this
    information!)

    The downside of these things, that current Debian does not seem to
    include Qt6 at all and I have no idea when it can go into the
    mainstream
    Debian, while there are a lot of project could be waiting for it.
    (Even
    my one is still pending for Debian). Qt6 for Debian is still in
    unstable/experimental state, which drives the developers like me
    to find
    other alternatives instead of Debian or for Debian.

Qt 6 will not be in debian until debin 13. Bookworm will still have Qt 5 and KDE 5. You can manually download and install Qt6 on Debian. If you target Debian 13 for inclusion of your app that will give you about two years to finish it.

    Best regards,
    Imre
