- Update to version 2.5.0
Deprecated
* v2.5.x will be the last release of qutebrowser 2. For the
upcoming 3.0.0 release, it's planned to drop support for
various legacy platforms and libraries which are unsupported
upstream, such as:
+ Qt before 5.15 LTS (plus adding support for Qt 6.2+)
+ Python 3.6
+ The QtWebKit backend
+ macOS 10.14 (via Homebrew)
+ 32-bit Windows (via Qt)
+ Windows 8 (via Qt)
+ Windows 10 before 1809 (via Qt)
+ Possibly other more minor dependency changes
* The :rl-unix-word-rubout command ( in command/prompt
modes) has been deprecated. Use :rl-rubout " " instead.
* The :rl-unix-filename-rubout command has been deprecated.
Use either :rl-rubout "/ " (classic readline behavior) or
:rl-filename-rubout (using OS path separator and ignoring
spaces) instead.
Changed
* Improved message if a spawned process wasn't found and a
Flatpak container is in use.
* The :tab-move command now takes start and end as index to move
a tab to the first/last position.
* Tests now automatically pick the backend (QtWebKit/QtWebEngine)
based on what's available. The QUTE_BDD_WEBENGINE environment
variable and --qute-bdd-webengine argument got replaced by
QUTE_TESTS_BACKEND and --qute-backend respectively, which can
be set to either webengine or webkit.
