Title:
Rename QML modules to follow current naming
Status in “qtsystems-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
The QML modules should be of the format qml-module-{$module-
name}[version], a transition that was started during Qt 5.3
preparation in Ubuntu.
Further details in Debian e-mail:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-kde-
talk/2014-March/001889.html
For Ubuntu, transitional packages should be put in place for smooth distribution upgrades, since we're shipping with the old names in previous Ubuntus. An example of that is at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/qtsystems-opensource-src/revision/31 - in other words:
- Make the old package a transitional oldlibs package that depends on the new package
- Add Breaks/Replaces to the new package for the old non-transitional packages (be careful about the version number specification)
- Keep Multi-Arch: same and Architecture: any for the transitional package
- Write "QML module" instead of "QML plugin"
