KDE Developers Discuss Merging Libraries With Qt

Posted by samzenpus on from the merge-ahead dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A proposal has been brought up with KDE developers by Cornelius Schumacher to merge the KDE libraries with the upstream Qt project. This could potentially lead to KDE5 coming about sooner than anticipated, but there's very mixed views on whether merging kdelibs with Qt would actually be beneficial to the KDE project, which has already led to two lengthy mailing list talks (the first and second threads). What do you think?"

    Will this mean Debian will break less due to KDE updates? If so, I'm all for it. If not, I probably won't care either way.

    How about they fix the steaming bloat-fest that is KDE4

    There is no "KDE4".
    What do you mean by "KDE4"? Platform 4(.5)? Plasma Workspaces 4(.5)? The whole Software Compilation 4(.5)?
