This thread is written as a possible cause for alternatives and workarounds due to devel/qt4-corelib and x11-toolkits/qt4-gui EOL. All of my FreeBSD boxen have been built to function with a HP-Officejet-6600 printer. I build it so that CUPS will work with those two ports/packages. But now I see that these are EOL and I am anticipating the need to have workarounds or alternatives ready for a printer back-up plan B.
First of all, I see a new series of qt5-* ports/packages and at first assumed these would naturally replace the qt4-* series; am I right?
Second, can CUPS be configured with GTK instead of Qt-*?
As always, any comments, hints and suggestions are welcomed.
