uses Qt5. Unsure if we want a patched package for a password manager.
After reading about the qt4 deletion process I also wondered what to do with keepassx and ended up with keepassxc which was originally a fork from keepassx and now even has more features so I suppose we should just remove keepassx and add an obsolete to keepassxc.
IMHO this would be perfectly fine, KeePassXC is very good tool, much better than KeePassX, so especially if the old package would be uninstalled and new automatically installed, users would see nice upgrade. :-)
Keep in mind that it will be necessary for users to import the old keepassx format password file into keypassxc - this doesn't happen automatically (it would be nice if there was a script to automate it as part of the upgrade). At the very least, a warning/message should be displayed to the user prompting them about what needs to be done.
What do You mean by import? Format of the database is identical - You can open the very same file in all KeePass<whatever> variant. The only problem is that the file won't be listed among last opened. Survivable, I hope. :-)
For some reason that didn't work for me. I could not open the older keepassx file directly - now I can't remember whether it was the database or the key file that required a different format. I did have to generate a new key file, know that much. I'll try again when I get some time on the weekend. -- ============================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au CCNA #CSCO12880208 ==============================================================
