Frameworks/Porting/Applications-14.12-status

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.

Parley	Port is already done together with libkdeedu, which is now called libkeduvocdocument after the rest of the kde edu library was moved or removed.
Gwenview	Port started by David Edmundson, merged into master after discussion with Aurelien.
Kate/KWrite	Ported since more than a half year to KF5/Qt5, merged into master by Christoph.
Kanagram	Ported a few months ago. All on master branch now.
Okteta	Ported since more than a year to KF5/Qt5, merged into master by Friedrich.
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 - will working on merging the framework branch to master
