Update Information:
This update upgrades QupZilla 2.2.6 to Falkon 3.0.1. QupZilla was renamed to
Falkon during the move to KDE infrastructure. See
https://community.kde.org/Incubator/Projects/Falkon and
https://www.falkon.org/
. The Falkon package obsoletes the QupZilla package. Existing QupZilla
profiles, including settings and bookmarks, are automatically migrated. (This
feature was introduced in Falkon 3.0.1, see rh#1575351.) This package
additionally adds support for migration of passwords stored in KWallet or GNOME
Keyring from QupZilla to Falkon. Note: If you already have a `~/.config/falkon`
directory, QupZilla profiles will not be migrated unless you rename or delete it
(at the expense of losing your already existing Falkon profiles), or manually
copy or move your profiles. Likewise, if you already have a `Falkon` folder in
KWallet or at least one entry with the application ID `Falkon` in GNOME Keyring,
no migration will happen, even if the `QupZilla` folder / application ID is
found. For KWallet, deleting the `Falkon` folder through `kwalletmanager5`
forces the migration, at the expense of losing any passwords already saved in
Falkon. Some tweaks you may want to do after migrating: * If you had any
plugins enabled (including the KWallet or GNOME Keyring password plugins and the
AdBlock plugin), they will not be enabled by default after the migration, so you
will probably want to reenable them. (As explained above, the KWallet and GNOME
Keyring plugins automatically migrate your passwords once enabled. For other
plugins, such as AdBlock, the profile migration migrates their settings.) * The
start page `qupzilla:start` no longer exists, so you will probably want to
change it to `falkon:start`. * You may want to recheck the default browser
settings in System Settings or your desktop of choice's equivalent. Bug fixes
since QupZilla 2.2.6 (the final QupZilla release, which was essentially
equivalent to Falkon 3.0.0) include: * fix incorrectly completing form data on
some sites kde#391327 * fix showing incorrect state of back and forward buttons
