So, no objections from me for the hard build requirements.

A small note on xkbcommon: Qt/xcb also requires it. Please make sure that Qt is built with a system xkbcommon, otherwise it picks the one bundled in 3rd- party and that has resulted in crashes in KWin in the past if KWin is build
with a system xkbcommon.

My Qt5 so far has been built using the 3rdparty source which is part
of the qt tarball. Once I add xkbcommon as a system package I will
have to recompile Qt5, is what you are telling?

yes

Is this a Qt5 bug that has not been addressed yet?

I'm not sure whether it counts as a bug (I have not reported one about it). It would certainly be nice if Qt would tell us in the build system that it pulled it in from 3rd-party so that we can error out in CMake. Apart from that there is probably not much to do. I always thought that it doesn't matter as distros don't like 3rd-party and will just build Qt against the system library ;-)

Cheers
Martin
