[Development] SDK Update for windows? QtCreator 2.5, Qt 2.8.3?

2012-10-22 Thread Mark
Hi, I just downloaded the windows SDK: http://qt-project.org/downloads However, the packages seem to be a little on the outdated side. Could the SDK be updated to contain the latest packages? Or perhaps wait till Qt 2.8.4 is released along with QtCreator 2.6? Cheers, Mark

Hi, In Qt 5 we're relying on libxcb instead of the aging xlib. One drawback is that it limits the portability of Qt binaries on Linux (AFAIK xcb isn't part of any LSB). But it turns out the real dealbreaker when trying to have a somewhat portable Qt binary on Linux is libxcb-icccu: E.g. I
