ACK!

- Examples should not be part of a -dev package.
- Linking them, as long as they are in the same package, should be ok. It's 
simply to do too.

I don't have the least idea :(

ACK.

Why not? That means:

- forcing the user to install the same doc twice, one in each format.
- we can't later add the relevant dependencies to qtdoc-opensource-src

Examples should go in an examples package. Check other Qt submodules for 
examples on how to ship examples ;)

I think it's a privacy breach non the less which is quite easy to fix. Extra 
points if a proper patch for doing this at build time is upstreamed.

By the way, that patch needs the necessary headers, check

Right, those need an update.

Some thoughts about the packging:

- debian/changelog: 
  * this is pedant, but it should really only list the inital package release 
with the proper close to the ITP. This is the first time it is uploaded so you 
don't really need to describe anything else.
  * Whoever did the initial packaging didn't follow the changelog guidelines
    [cg]. Please take a look at them and be sure to follow them. Ask if in
    doubt.

  [cg] http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/changelogstandard.html

- debian/control:
  * Maintainer should be the Qt/KDE team.
  * Scarlett, Sandro and Simon should be listed in Uploaders, they are the 
ones doing the job after all :)

- debian/copyright
  * $QT_BEGIN_LICENSE:LGPL21$ ← this is not OK, it's just a template used by 
upstream.
  * Please check other submodule sto see how this is handled. Ask if in doubt.
  * Copyright lines are not machine parseable, see http://dep.debian.net/deps/
dep5/

- debian/.directory really?

- debian/docs: it's empty, remove it.

- debian/libqt5webchannel-dev.install
  * usr/lib/*/qt5/examples/webchannel/ /usr/share/doc/libqt5webchannel-dev/
examples ← examples should go in it's proper package.

- debian/not-installed: our Qt not-written policy is to remove the files not 
being shipped with a commad in debian/rules, using rm -fv. We keep the v to be 
sure we know which files are being removed just by looking at the build log. 
We might revisit that policy, as I think not-installed is now supported by the 
necessary tools. Can anyone update me on this?

- debian/patches: already reviewed above.

- debian/rules: 
  * qmake will not take those flags. And if it did that would be a problem, as 
hardening enables -fPIE but we require -fPIC (which already implies -fPIE, but 
you can't use both at the same time).
  * qmake QT_BUILD_PARTS+=" src" ← why that?
  * make install INSTALL_ROOT=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp ← why not using
    dh_auto_install? check for example qtsensors.
  * Missing -v in first and last rm call.

- debian/.gitattributes is missing, use qtbase's one as an example.
