After a brief search plasma-5.13 need >=qt-5.10.1 then there is need qt-5.11 to be released it.
You can look Qt 5.11 tracker for check the status.

Looks like it will be a while before plasma-5.13 hits the portage tree. Qt 5.11 is a beast and breaks a whole lot of stuff.

I'm not in a hurry, I installed [url=plasma-browser-integration]plasma-browser-integration[/url] and gmenu-dbusmenu-proxy (for global menu in gtk) and my 5.12.5 is like a 5.13 (yes there is no blur effect e some UI improvement but for me isn't important)

My laptop (~1.600 packages, full Plasma DE) is on Qt-5.11.1 since it became available in the Qt Overlay (via layman). It isn't even masked, only keyworded.

The upgrade from Qt-5.9.6 was going through without any incident and the machine works without any issues. So at least for me the "whole lot of stuff" was exactly nothing. ;-)

Hmm... The only two open bugs are about missing includes. Patches for the (absolute harmless) fixes are already available.

Are you sure; it looks pretty hard masked on my machine:

Code:
eix -I qtcore
[I] dev-qt/qtcore
     Available versions: 
     (4)    4.8.7-r4
     (5)    5.9.4-r2(5/5.9)^t (~)5.9.6(5/5.9)^t [M](~)5.11.0_rc2-r1(5/5.11)^t

If there are no issues, why has it not made into portage yet?

There is a bit more to packaging than 'built without error on one system'.

I would say even more than that. Not just built, but run without error on one system. If it runs for me, it does not matter. It has to run on many testers' machines, with potentially large number of USE combos.

With a meta distro like Gentoo, its even harder than the usual fixed-at-build-time distros e.g. I may be using a DB backend for a package which is different from yours and that DB backend has different upgrade requirements/glitches/quirks, which need to be worked through by ebuild'ers.

So, my question was mostly rhetorical....:-)
