> qtbase-5.8.0 does not install libQt5PlatformSupport, so kwin fails to
libQt5PlatformSupport is part of the private API. Do you also have the
private dev packages installed?
How did you install Qt?
Support for qt 5.8 was added to trunk in this commit, would be nice to have it backported to Plasma/5.8 (it's not clear whether qt 5.8 will be released before Plasma 5.9) (In reply to Antonio Rojas from comment #2) > Support for qt 5.8 was added to trunk in this commit, would be nice to have > it backported to Plasma/5.8 (it's not clear whether qt 5.8 will be released > before Plasma 5.9) https://cgit.kde.org/kwin.git/commit?id=052fa2e4ee329810f62c29e546254fb45bf8a375 > would be nice to

we cannot. Technically speaking that would break the dependency freeze.
If distros want to combine Plasma 5.8 with Qt 5.8 they need to
cherry-pick the commit.
KWin is not compatible with Qt 5.8 anyway. Odd. Using KWin with Qt 5.8 here. |
