This release is a minor bugfix release from version 4.0. The most notable
changes are mitigations for KDE Plasma 5.18 which changed behavior in its
Breeze theme that rendered Audacious basically unusable.
Full list of bug fixes and improvements:
* Audacious now works as expected when run under KDE Plasma 5.18 default
settings.
* Audacious when running under QtUI will no longer block logout on KDE
Plasma 5.18.
* Skinned windows are placed correctly when running under GTK+.
* Seeking in audio files when using the SoX resampler plugin will no
longer crash the player.
This release switches to Qt 5 by default. The Qt UI has become quite polished by now. It will be quite familiar to users of the GTK2 UI, but it also brings a few nice-to-have improvements, such as a playlist view that is easier to navigate and sort.
GTK2 remains available and supported as a build option, but new features will only be added to the Qt UI going forward.
Some things that we wanted to get finished didn't make it into this release. In particular, the Qt port of the Winamp-like UI is still missing some key features such the Jump to Song window. Users of the Winamp-like UI may want to continue using GTK2 for now. The Windows builds are also still using GTK2, until some Windows-specific font size issues (on displays greater than 96 DPI) can be worked out in the Qt version.

Clicking on playlist column headers sorts the playlist (#8)
Dragging playlist column headers changes the column order (#10)

Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
