[Qt] Qt5 and lazarus

[Paul Gevers]

Hi all
[ Please CC me on reply, I am not subscribed to this list ].

Upstream Qt recommends to stop using Qt4 next year. This means that
Debian is already trying to get rid of it¹². This has impact for the
Lazarus package as the Qt lcl depends on Qt4 to work.

Rather late than never, I started on packaging the libqt5pas bindings
for Debian, which should be available. However, that is rather useless
as long as Lazarus isn't ported to use the Qt5 bindings. I was
wondering, is anybody here working on porting the Qt lcl to Qt5?

Paul
