Debian package libqt5xml5

Hi, All:

I am trying to install a debian package with debtap and found it has required library:

libqt5xml5

. But just found it doesn't have such a library available in Arch. but it seems hard to get this debian library package within Arch. is there any way to get the debian package that contains this library?

Note, one of my searches returned is this Arch package,

qt4-xmlpatterns

. but it doesn't contain the library. but honestly, I don't know within debian/ubuntu OS whether the qt5 xmlpatterns ought to include the library though...

many thanks in advance.

Re: Debian package libqt5xml5

Have you checked the AUR?

I recommend avoiding debtap unless you really have no other options. As for your missing library, it's provided by qt5-base on Arch.

$ pacman -F libQt5Xml.so.5
extra/qt5-base 5.15.14+kde+r141-1 (qt5)

Re: Debian package libqt5xml5

Hi mackin_cheese: yes, I did checked in AUR. No libqt5xml5 there. The debian package is eastmoney.

Hi, WorMzy: I have already installed qt5-base here but debtap still complained about libqt5xml5 and I may assume this may be due to the case confliction in the naming but don't know for sure as I don't have a Debian/Ubuntu to test out but would assume it is in all lowercase which is what I found in google ...

So, this is how I was led to consider installation of libqt5xml5 debian package but don't know how to get this deb within arch.

qt5-xmlpatterns is in the arch repos

Re: Debian package libqt5xml5

I may not say this clear: qt5-xmlpatterns was also installed but it doesn't solve the problem.

Re: Debian package libqt5xml5

In Debian Sid your libqt5xml5 comes up

 apt search libqt5xml5
libqt5xml5t64/unstable,now 5.15.15+dfsg-4+b1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
  Qt 5 XML module

The t64 was part of the big transition some time ago so you likely won't see it in other releases.

apt policy libqt5xml5t64
libqt5xml5t64:
  Installed: 5.15.15+dfsg-4+b1
  Candidate: 5.15.15+dfsg-4+b1
  Version table:
 *** 5.15.15+dfsg-4+b1 500
        500 https://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Re: Debian package libqt5xml5

hi, eriefisher: thank you.

is there anyway to solve the font case conflict between Arch and Debian/Ubuntu (see #4 and #5)?

Not sure what you are doing wrong then cause i was able to build it in debtap and install. you only mentioned qt4-xmlpatterns in your original post, not qt5. I would double check everything if i were you.
