botan3 support

[nunotexbsd]

Hello,

botan2 is deprecated upstream: https://botan.randombit.net/#botan2
Is there plans to use botan3 instead?

Thanks

[evpo]

Hi , yes, there is already botan3 branch, which is working, but it does not support all build types I have. More work is needed before I can release it.

@evpo Nice to know.

FreeBSD port is about to expire on 2025-06-21 because of that.
I will take maintainership and start doing some tests on botan3 branch.

[nunotexbsd]

I can confirm that v0.4.0.2-401-g3593110d from branch botan3 builds and runs OK with botan3.

qt5 is about to be deprecated soon and I'm already using port at botan3 branch.

How do I use qt6+botan3?

[evpo]

Hi, look at branch qt6. It supports both qt6 and botan3. I am using it at the moment.

@evpo

Problem is fixed and I have pushed Qt6 support on FreeBSD port
( https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=29cfd22dd4e54f88f50d39c54fc75a6017a4e0b8 )

Hope that qt6+botan3 support get merged soon in a new release.

NOTE: not closing PR, please feel free to close it as it is solved for me.

Thanks
