Please port your package away from Qt 4

[Simon Quigley]

Currently Qt 4 has been dead upstream and we are starting to have problems maintaining it, like for example in the OpenSSL 1.1 support case.

Following in the footsteps of Debian[1], all packages directly or indirectly depending on qt4-x11 (like this one) must either get ported to Qt 5 and uploaded to the development release or get removed (by means of demotion to -proposed or removal of the package) before the 19.04 release. If it is possible to port your package by the 18.10 release, please do so.

If you have any questions about porting or this transition, please ask in #ubuntu-qt (preferred) or directly ping me

I've just uploaded a fix as libgwenhywfar 4.20.0-2 to Debian experimental.

Thank you!

This bug was fixed in the package libgwenhywfar - 4.20.0-9

---------------
libgwenhywfar (4.20.0-9) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Drop binary packages libgwengui-qt4-0 and libgwengui-qt4-dev
    now also in Debian unstable (Closes: #875012, LP: #1757732).
  * Fix spelling mistake in debian/changelog entry for 4.20.0-8.
  * debian/control:
    - Add upstream homepage.
    - Bump standards version to 4.3.0 (no changes needed).
    - Vcs-Git: track Git branch 'master' again.
  * debian/watch: Update to new upstream homepage.
  * Revert attempts to make package libgwenhywfar-core-dev Multi-Arch: same
    because it broke cross compiling (closes: #906560). This removes
    multiarch_support_in_gwenhywfar-config_script.patch, removes the multiarch
    hint and dependency on pkg-config from binary package
    libgwenhywfar-core-dev.
  * Integrate with Salsa CI by adding the file debian/gitlab-ci.yml.
