Task QTBUG-14131 asks to make "runtime" the default on OS X but "linked" the default everywhere else. That's how I started with https://codereview.qt-project.org/100573 However, I later decided to remove the OS X-specific check. Why have it in the first place? The reason why we concluded in that task to ask for the runtime as the default for OS X was because we required the libdbus-1 headers. Now we don't: we can compile QtDBus without libdbus-1, which is the default situation in OS X. In any case, I just think we shouldn't special-case it. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
