Is this buildsystem branch the one we get when we just clone qt5 clean? By that I mean if I go through the steps documented here: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building-Qt-5-from-Git is that the same as this branch. The reason I ask is I just cloned qt5 from gitorious and saw a lot of updates. I am wonder if this will fix the broken build issue on Mac OS X. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
