loise/kentos-8-base
Project ID: 33348
Description
Base RPMs for KentOS from rebuilds and updates from Centos 8.2.2004 and EPEL 8 plus all needed to compile and install all of KDE/Qt
Beware: Qt depending packages have been rebuilt with Qt 5.15.0 !
- Builds of Qt 5.15.0 against CentOS 8.2.2004
- Rebuilds of CentOS 8.2.2004 RPMs where some output RPMs were missing in the distribution
- Updates for selected CentOS 8.2.2004 RPMs which are outdated for the requirements of KDE/Qt and are replaced by newer versions
- Rebuilds of EPEL-8 RPMs which depend on Qt and are recompiled with Qt 5.15.0 to check wether patches are needed plus RPMs for building and installing KDE/Qt without EPEL-8 (standalone installation of CentOS, RHEL or OL without EPEL-8)
- Updates for selected EPEL-8 RPMs which require patches to build against Qt 5.15.0 or are upgraded because the newer version does not require a patch
- Updates for selected CentOS RPMs where functionality is provided for KentOS: appstream-data (from Fedora latest)

Additional Packages from Fedora
To compile and install all KDE/Qt related packages, the missing packages were rebuilt from Fedora rawhide git versions. Mostly those include compile and runtime dependencies for KDE's Release-Service and other KDE/Qt applications, which are also needed for installing the EPEL-8 versions of KDE but are not shipped with EPEL-8.
fwupd, efivar, gcab, flatpak, appstream: all for plasma-discover
Other Qt/KDE RPMs from Fedora which need fixes:
- TODO: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/qtcurve.git (Qt 5.15 compile error)
