    initial v1  
    55The only question I have is when 1.8.1 can be expected. I think I've already seen it mentioned somewhere (IIRC in relation to bugs in 1.8.0), but to me gpgme is just another dependency, not something I work with directly so I'm following its evolution closely. I'd expect the port maintainers to be doing that a bit more ;)

    7 David: the library renaming is all that's advisable for Qt5 support, and it is not really an upstream issue. We can raise the idea upstream, but I think their position will be that we should find our own solution if we want to be able to install the Qt4 and Qt5 libraries in the same directory, and it's not like we've never done this kind of thing before.

    88From what I understand, QGpgME is included with gpgme as largely a courtesy so the KDE PIM developers don't have to continue to provide it. KDE PIM 5 has done nothing to allow coinstallation with KDE PIM 4, which probably explains why the library wasn't renamed as the Qt5 versions of so many other libraries were.

    10 Sadly we're not close to being able to retire kdepimlibs4, and it's a crucial package for me. We *could* try to change the Qt4 gpgme libraries, but I have a feeling that might be less straightforward than with the Qt5 version.

     12Edit: as explained in a comment in the Portfile, QGpgME announces its library name and install location via .cmake files. Those are modified too, so any well-behaved dependent package will continue to find the things it needs.
