Which would requires identifying version, build options, and build environment as well, in order to ensure ABI compatibility.

Ask QT maintainer, not individual QT applications maintainers. We produce package to distribute software, not to configure end users machines. -- Configure bugmail: https://plf.zarb.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ PLF-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://www.zarb.org/mailman/listinfo/plf-discuss
