Ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule sabelana ngezindaba lapha kubhulogi mayelana nesinqumo abasithathe ngaphakathi kwaQt Inkampani mayelana nokwenza izinguquko ezithile kumamodeli wabo wamalayisense nokuthi bamemezele ukuthi uhlelo lokusekelwa lwesikhathi eside lwe-Qt lufakwa kuphela kumalayisense ezentengiso, ngaphezu kokunqanda ukufinyelela kwephrojekthi ngandlela thile.
Futhi ngukuthi njengoba kushiwo lokho umphakathi uzokwazi ukufinyelela kuzinguqulo ezintsha ze-Qt ngonyaka owodwa ngemuva kokukhishwa kwawo real (uma ufuna ukwazi kabanzi ngayo mayelana nenothi, ungabheka ukushicilelwa Kulesi sixhumanisi esilandelayo).
Yebo, manje ngemuva kwalesi sikhathi esidlulile kusukela ezindabeni kuze kube manje, imikhawulo yeQt Company isiqalile futhi yilokho I-Tuukka turunen, Umqondisi Wentuthuko weQt Company, muva nje umemezele umkhawulo wokufinyelela endaweni yokugcina yomthombo yegatsha le-Qt 5.15 LTS, inguqulo ekhishwe kuphela ngoMeyi odlule futhi ukukhishwa kokuqala kwesiqephu se-Qt 5.15.3 LTS esidayiselwe ukuhweba kuphela kuhlelelwe ukukhishwa ngoFebhuwari.
Njengoba i-Qt 6.0.0 ikhishiwe futhi inguqulo yokuqala ye-patch (Qt 6.0.1) iza maduzane, sekuyisikhathi sokufaka isigaba se-LTS sokuhweba kuphela se-Qt 5.15 LTS.
Onke amagatsha akhona ayi-5.15 ahlala abonakala esidlangalaleni, kepha avaliwe ukwenza okusha (nokukhethwa).
Okuhlukile yi-Qt WebEngine (ne-Qt Script eyehlisiwe), enokuthembela kwe-LGPL okuvela eceleni.
Ngemuva kwalokhu, izinketho ziya kwenye indawo yokugcina ezotholakala kuphela kubanikazi bamalayisense wokuhweba.
Sizohlela ukufinyelela endaweni yokugcina yabanikazi bamalayisense wokuhweba, ngakho-ke ngaphezu kwezinguqulo ezisemthethweni, kungenzeka ukuthi usebenzise izinqolobane. Imiyalo ngalokhu izotholakala kubanikazi bamalayisense ebhizinisini phakathi nesonto elizayo, ngemuva kokuphothula ushintsho lwelayisense kanye namanye amalungiselelo.
Singakwazi ukuhlela ukufinyelela kwabagcini bamamojuli bangaphandle kumakhosombe wokuhweba kuphela.
Umkhawulo wethulwe ngokohlelo kumenyezelwe ngonyaka owedlule, okubandakanya ukukhishwa esidlangalaleni kwekhodi yoshintsho emagatsheni e-LTS kuphela ngaphambi kokwakhiwa kokukhishwa okubalulekile okulandelayo.
Futhi ukuthi emasontweni ambalwa edlule kukhishwe i-Qt 6.0, ikhodi yayo ihlala itholakala futhi ukushicilelwa kwesibuyekezo sokuqala 6.0.1 kulindeleke ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ezizayo.
Kepha kusukela namuhla (Januwari 5) abanikazi belayisense lokuhweba kuphela abazokwazi ukufinyelela ikhodi ngezibuyekezo ze-Qt version 5.15.
Noma kushiwo lokho ukufinyelela komphakathi kuzo zonke izinhlobo ze-Qt 5.15 kuzogcinwa kushicilelwe ngaphambilini, kepha ukuqinisekiswa okusha kuzongezwa ngemuva kweminyango evaliwe. Okuhlukile kwenzelwa kuphela ikhodi yamamojula we-Qt WebEngine ne-Qt Script, axhumene nokuncika kwangaphandle ngaphansi kwelayisense le-LGPL.
Isiqephu se-Qt 5.15.3 sihlelelwe ukukhishwa ngoFebhuwari kubasebenzisi bebhizinisi kuphela. I-Qt Company izwakalise ukuzimisela kwayo, ngesicelo esihlukile, sokuhlinzeka abanakekeli bamamojuli bangaphandle be-Qt ngokufinyelela ezinqolobaneni ezizimele, ezizonikeza amalungu omphakathi ithuba lokubuka izinguquko ku-Qt 5.15 LTS.
Ukulungiswa kwamaphutha nokuba sengozini nakho kungathathwa kusuka egatsheni lokuthuthukanoma lapho kwenziwa khona izinhlobo ezintsha ze-Qt. Njengomthetho ojwayelekile, amachashazi avela kuqala kuleli gatsha, ngemuva kwalokho adluliselwa emagatsheni anezinguqulo ezizinzile.
Ukusekelwa kwegatsha langaphambilini le-LTS Qt 5.12 kuzohlala kuze kube sekupheleni kuka-2021. Ukusatshalaliswa okudinga ukuthumela amaphakheji nge-Qt 5.15 kuzophoqeleka ukuthi kugcinwe igatsha ngokwabo noma kushintshelwe egatsheni le-Qt 6, elingaqinisekisi ukuhambisana okugcwele ne-Qt 5.
Abagcini be-Qt ku-Debian basho phambilini lokho ngeke babe nesikhathi esanele sokusekela i-Qt 6 ekusatshalalisweni. Umphakathi uxoxa ngokwakhiwa kwephrojekthi ehlangene yokuhlela ukwesekwa kwamagatsha awo e-LTS e-Qt, ezimele kwiQt Company.
Futhi kunjalo. Okuhle akukwazi ukukhululeka ngoba kunzima ukukuthuthukisa.
