Dear Maintainers, I can't upgrade QT to 6.7.2 because it attemps to remove kate editor that I use every day: is it possible to update this package?
You're (probably) running the version of kate in experimental, which has not been rebuilt against the recent QT 6.7.2 (because, I believe, rebuilds are not automatically performed for packages in experimental.) The solution is to downgrade to the version in testing.
Thanks, Antonio The following packages will be REMOVED: kate kwrite libpyside6-py3-6.6 libqt5systeminfo5 libshiboken6-py3-6.6 zeal ... 375 upgraded, 9 newly installed, 6 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 230 MB of archives. After this operation, 183 MB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] ^C
It may be easiest to simply allow those to be uninstalled, and then re-install the package afterwards. By default, apt will be very shy about downgrading package, since that is not supported (though with a leaf, user package like kate, really the worst that can happen is broken user configuration, which should be easily fixed by just blowing away the old config). Best, Antonio
