I wonder the same thing as Thomas. I also have to patch away the version check every time a new debian package gets distributed.
Why don't you patch away the version check in the Debian package in general? I never had a problem using Anki on a QT version officially not supproted. At least I can confirm that it works a lot better than with the version check in it. (Making the package completely unusable.) Also the bug that is trying to be prevented by the refusal of 5.10 doesn't seem to be that important, that it would suggest refusing to run the program at all. The problem is documented to cause a crash when opening the the browser and the stats window back and forth multiple times. So what? The program can be restarted afterwards, it doesn't seem to crash the database, as there shouldn't be any write operation on it at that time. (And in case of, there would be a backup of the data automatically done by Anki anyway.) -- Matthias Peter Wimmer Múnich Beieren Germany Eŭropa 世界 +49-17777-19999 https://matthias.wimmer.name/ Developing software / Learning languages / Love to sail
