Ticket #69832, comment 13
v1 v2 1 1 FWIW, upstream now include a shorter version of the same fix that I proposed above. I have no explanation why they can get away with only a single source code change, but maybe the other location I've had to fix no longer exists or was fixed in another commit. 2 2 3 My own version of the port is now at 4.11.1.11 ( 528c604baaaea1c5617eb4301fa53679c52becc9) which already has a single patch to build against Qt <=5.9 . As far as I can tell upstream development has targeted the Qt6 implementation and has only changed the Qt5 implementation to make it easier to host those 2 "flavours" in a single branch and directory. There doesn't seem to be any justification for upgrading `port:phonon-qt5` to a newer version if older OS versions (and thus Qt5 versions) have to continue to be supported.3 My own version of the port is now at 4.11.1.11 (!528c604baaaea1c5617eb4301fa53679c52becc9) which already has a single patch to build against Qt <=5.9 .
