Comment (by SenileFelineS):
Replying to [comment:4 reneeotten]:
> It's probably not a good idea to override what the Qt5 PortGroup sets as
the latest Qt version supported on the platform, which is indeed Qt 5.6 on
Mac OS X Lion (10.7); I would imagine that this could cause trouble for
other ports down the road. It's a known issue that QtWebEngine does not
work for Qt 5.6 despite all Marcus his attempts - and it's therefore
unlikely that this will be resolved.
I tested the Anaconda 4.2 release on my Mac OS X 10.7 system and at first
glance it appears that their version of Spyder uses Qt5.6 with
QtWebEngine. Could a solution be gleaned from Anaconda's implementation?
> If you're willing to help to do some testing on your system and we can
establish that QtWebkit is a viable alternative to QtWebEngine (I tried
only quickly and it seems to work for me, but with Qt 5.12.3), then I am
happy to add a variant for this that can be set as the default on older
systems.
The output of {{{port installed active | grep qt5}}} is attached.
