Still trying to keep up, at the moment KF6 6.11.0-rc1 with Qt6 6.8.2 up and running, a MR to fix cmake on Haiku to build latest Qt-Creator 15.0.1 is filed.
One thing that got on my nerves from the very start was using color-schemes on the KDE software, that I found out pretty quick (some have disabled support for it and use the system colors (thanks for that @3dEyes !)), some can’t use that fix and having some color-schemes installed is quite handy then.
So now I was bothered that Konsole didn’t follow these settings and I knew there were color-schemes specifically for Konsole, but I couldn’t figure out how to use them (hey, I’m daily driving Haiku so not that familiar on Linux install anymore, so I launched a Fedora VM I have here just for those cases and figured it out!
Now Kdevelop 24.12.3 and master builds for Konsole and Kate are using colors that can match the time of the day (eg brighter colors during the day, and darker ones for the evening). Me happy
We’ve got our own IDE for Haiku called Genio, which is still a a working process, alternetive we can use other IDE, so this week Qt-Creator 16.0.0 was released to the public.
My personal favorite though is still KDevelop which I follow closely and build from master branch (source) to keep up on progress there and see if nothing is broken for Haiku. A MR to disable internal documentview (needs qtwebengine for Qt6) is at hand and I’ve done some work prior to that, now rebased and finetuned with the one from upstream and looking good so far.
So big thanks to the KDevelop team there!
EDIT, only posted and already QtCreator 16.0.1 is released, at the moment only localy available on my machine, will update later for the Haiku public (got some other fish to fry first).
Been looking out to see the evolution for Krita stays on par for Haiku, hence checking out latest commits to the source and building it for Qt6, yesterday attempted a build with PyQt6 enabled to see if the python scripts would be showing up in the menu also.
Turns out this worked pretty fine!
