Some notes:
- proftpd has been supporting PCRE2 since 1.3.8a.
- bluefish actually invokes PCRE via Glib, so since Glib was ported
from PCRE1 to PCRE2 bluefish has been using PCRE2 in fact.
- zsh and rasqal will support PCRE2 in the next release. For zsh pcre
is not used with book instruction anyway, and for rasqal the
maintainer suggests just relying on Glibc regex.h before the next
release.
- The other distros (Fedora for eg) are already disabling PCRE for
slang.
This update replaces kf5. In doing so there are several packages
in BLFS that are broken, notably the LXQt packages that reference
kf5 packages.
Trying to maintain kf5 and kf6 in the book is more effort than it
is worth. For those that want the kf5 based elements, blfs-12.1
still works.
Several packages were updated to build with qt6 so they are not available
for packages that need the qt5 versions, These include qca, polkit-qt, and
phonon. A couple of packages that are no longer needed for kf6 are still
in the book: kuserfeedback and libdbusmenuqt.
Many filenames still need to be changed, e.g. kf5-frameworks.xml, as
well as xml defined identifiers.
Later when LXQt releases their qt6/kf6 based packages, then we will
do a scrub of all the book internals to make names consistent.
Update to plasma-wayland-protocols-1.12.0.
Update to plasma5-5.27.10.
Update to kde gear-23.08.4 including kate, kwave, and falkon.
Update to kf5-5.113.0.
neither firefox nor epiphany can download them, and they are not
well maintained, because rarely tested.
This is WIP because the "(HTTP)" part of "Download (HTTP)" will
need to be removed too.
But let's see what users think first...
1. Remove redundant paragraph for Cantarell, left over from when it
was at gnome (latest gnome versions do not ship the fonts, only
the source - prepared TTF fonts are at Google fonts).
2. Reword the old KDE comment in Noto fonts, replace by mentioning
that Noto fonts are preferred for everything in KDE Plasma and
applications, except for monospace - and add link to Hack for that.
3. Comment Oxygen fonts.
Now all sourceforge.net subdomains have a valid SSL certificate. The
changes are automatically done via a sed. I've reviewed the changes and
reverted the changes in archive/*, pst/xml/docbook-xsl.xml, and
stylesheets/lfs-xsl/lfs-l10n.xml. Other changes should (hopefully) be
fine.
See ticket #16805: right now the book is wrong: the instructions
for kapidox should be using pip3 or setup.py. We defer making
new instructions until we update kde-frameworks in August.
