Currently they live in the KDE:Qt51 project, the plan is to move them to Factory after some rounds of polishing and testing.
Due to the submission to Factory, I had to rename quite a number of packages so that it would follow openSUSE naming conventions and to clear the rpmlintrc errors.
Is there any larger reason that libqt5-qtbase has multiple libraries in it?
Yes, this is what the qtbase tarball contains. There's no reason to split it further.
What is the rationale for having a libQt5Xml.so.5.1 symlink? The SONAME is libQt5Xml.so.5 and that is what applications will link to.
This is what upstream provides and there's no reason not to provide those symlinks. Your complete failure with your icu experiments should have taught you that trying to go against upstream policies only brings breakages, no ? Christophe
