The KDE Applications release which is planned for December 2014 will contain applications which are still based on Qt4 and kdelibs 4.x, and the first stable Qt5+KF5-based release of some others. The decision will be taken on a per-application basis by the maintainers/core developers.
This page aims to provide an overview of the decisions which have been taken already. For some applications, it is important to know if a Qt5+KF5-based of their runtime dependencies (e.g., the Konsole KPart for an embedded terminal) will be available.
Applications which will release their first stable Qt5+KF5-based version in December 2014
| Name of the application | Further information (links to relevant mailing list threads, wiki pages, etc.) |
|---|---|
| Gwenview | Port started by David Edmundson, merged into master after discussion with Aurelien. |
| Kanagram | Ported a few months ago. All on master branch now. |
| KHangMan | Ported a month ago. All on master branch now. |
| Kate/KWrite | Ported since more than a half year to KF5/Qt5, merged into master by Christoph. |
| Konsole | Ported for quite a while - It is highly unlikely a new KDE4 version would have any major additions, so we might as well try for KF5 version - merged the framework branch to master. |
| Okteta | Ported since more than a year to KF5/Qt5, merged into master by Friedrich. |

| KAlgebra | Master is KF5 and is the version should be released. |
| KAppTemplate | Ported during Akademy and the time after. Master branch is KF5 and stable (Should be released). |
