SubjectBug#1050017: khelpcenter: Drop khtml
Message-ID<H46M1-2IO2-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
Source: khelpcenter
Version: 4:22.12.3-1
Severity: important

Please update to qt6 as soon as possible to get rid of khtml.
It is no longer developed and could be autoremoved if khelpcenter would not make it a key package.
A porting effort is at https://invent.kde.org/system/khelpcenter/-/tree/kf6

Hi Bastian

Please stop this. It is not helpful. Once everything is released upstream, it 
will end up in Debian.

For khelpcenter maybe it is not helpful. But when we reach freeze for trixie and okular still has 
those optional dependencies, they should just be dropped to move on with the deprecated packages.
They also block pcre3 removal which is why I filed the bug in the first place.

Let's revisit once we are close to trixie release. Right now, it just gets in 
the way.

I expect khtml and kjs to disappear without much non-kde/qt team involvement 
by summer, maybe even easter. I don't expect trixie freeze to happen before 
that.
