Replaced 42 fragile per-recipe sed hacks (commenting out
ecm_install_po_files_as_qm and ki18n_install(po) in CMakeLists.txt)
with a single clean cmake flag: -DKF_SKIP_PO_PROCESSING=ON.
Both ECMPoQmTools.cmake and KF6I18nMacros.cmake.in natively check
KF_SKIP_PO_PROCESSING and return early before reaching
find_package(Qt6 COMPONENTS LinguistTools CONFIG REQUIRED).
This eliminates the need for Qt6LinguistTools (lupdate/lrelease)
at build time. When qttools is eventually built and Qt6LinguistTools
becomes available, simply remove the flag to re-enable translations.
With Qt6 FEATURE_qml=ON, FEATURE_network=ON, FEATURE_openssl=ON, and the
D-Bus daemon wiring all now working, several KF6 shortcuts can be removed:
- kf6-kdeclarative: re-enable Qt6 Qml+Quick (was Gui-only), drop the
KGLOBALACCEL=FALSE set, re-enable qmlcontrols subdirectory
- kf6-kcmutils: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON, USE_DBUS=ON (re-enables QML KCM
surfaces and the D-Bus session bus path)
- kf6-kitemmodels: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON (QML model bridge)
- kf6-kiconthemes: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON (QML icon theme integration)
- kf6-kio: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON (QML KIO integration), WITH_WAYLAND=ON
(Wayland-native KIO slaves)
- kf6-kpackage: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON (QML package bridge)
- kf6-kxmlgui: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON (QML XML GUI)
- kf6-kwindowsystem: WITH_WAYLAND=ON (Wayland KWindowSystem)
- kf6-prison: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON (QML barcode generator)
- kf6-sonnet: SONNET_USE_QML=ON (QML spellcheck integration)
- plasma-framework: BUILD_WITH_QML=ON, USE_DBUS=ON (QML framework + D-Bus)
Translations (ecm_install_po_files_as_qm, ki18n_install(po)) remain
disabled across all packages — they require lupdate/lrelease built for
the target which is a separate infrastructure item.
