 Anyone interested in using the latest Qt release version?

 I've been spending around a week in getting my `qt5-kde-devel` port
 upgraded to Qt 5.6.0 and to my satisfaction. The deprecation and
 subsequent removal of QtWebKit made this more of a challenge than it
 should have been.

 A QtWebKit 5.6.0 "community release" does exist, but its packaging is
 incomplete. However, even after generating the missing files the component
 will not build for me as a subport (= not as `port install qt5-kde-devel-
 qtwebkit`) while the same sequence of commands completes successfully when
 invoked manually from the shell.

 The component does build though as part of a full/monolithic build like
 it's always been done, so for now that's what `qt5-kde-devel` does,
 grabbing the latest compatible qtwebkit sources via github's
 archive/snapshot feature.
