I'd like a little more information on that. Even though I have a Mac, I am not allowed to upgrade it right now (it's a corporate machine and gets upgrades when Intel IT says it gets upgrades). Even if I could upgrade right now, I'm not the person to investigate the issues. So what I'd like to know is how badly broken -- if at all -- Qt 4.8.5 is on OS X 10.9. Then we can make a call on how urgent the fixes are. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
