I have, as a distributor, frequently gotten 'hate' in #qt for providing switchable qmakes. And from a 'user support' PoV, having to write "depending on what you have set as your default you can maybe write qmake, maybe you need to oither switch the default to qt5 or alternatively write qmake5 to build things" is a much longer sentence than "write qmake5 to build things". The advantage of doing it upstream, rather than having me to do it, kevin to do it, will to do it, jonathan to do it, ... is that - the implementation is the same - the result is the same - you do not have to consider what distribution teh user is on when trying to help in #qt, on interest@ or in forums. just write 'use qmake5 /Sune _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
