October 2025 monthly summary for nextcloud/craft-blueprints-kde. Delivered a major platform upgrade and broad dependency modernization to improve stability, performance, and security across Linux and Windows builds. Implemented a Qt 6.10.0 upgrade with robust short-path handling hacks to maintain compatibility, verified by a sequence of commits stabilizing path resolution (qt 6.10.0, qtbase patches, and path hack enforcement). Executed extensive core library upgrades (glib 2.86.0, libopus 1.5.2, dbus 1.14.10, freetype 2.14.1, giflib with cmake bump, svtav1 3.1.2, ffmpeg 8, libarchive 3.8.1, qca 2.3.10, libidn2; plus ancillary updates such as libssh2, libical, taglib, snoretoast) to reduce risk and improve compatibility. Strengthened Windows CI/build reliability with test-skipping, cmake-version checks bypass, and CI-mode enhancements, shortening feedback cycles on failures. Completed maintenance and compatibility work including removing unused xmlsec1 blueprint, ignoring ebook-tools version checks to prevent breakages, and other dependency refinements (libidn1->libidn2, qca 2.3.10, and more). Impact: higher platform coverage, faster and more reliable builds, easier future upgrades, and a stronger security posture through current libraries.
