Yes. The release documentation should list where it was tested  -- but it can 
also document where it is reasonable to expect Qt to work (in other words it is 
OK to "extrapolate").

Yes, we would like it to be fixed.

Should a contribution be reverted if it turns out that it brings up a bug in 
Fedora that is hard to work around? 

What are the distributions where we _require_ such bugs to be fixed (=reference 
configurations), as opposed to platform configurations where we would like Qt 
to work on? If we don't specify the reference configurations based on what runs 
in the CI system, then shouldn't we document them explicitly in some other way?

Best regards,
Henry
