Hi,<br>
<br>
There are a couple of people with patches to Qt that they would like<br>
to see included in the CSSU. However, unlike Maemo core, Forum Nokia<br>
are actively maintaining the Maemo 5 Qt ecosystem (e.g. mcsp).<br>
<br>
Attila/Ville/..., what're your thoughts on rebuilding Qt as part of<br>
the CSSU? I don't know the specific patches, but what about in<br>
principle?<br></blockquote><div><br>Qt is somewhat tricky because of the Nokia repos and Ovi compatibility
requirements (I know a lot of folks couldn't care less about those, but
those are still hurdles when dealing with things on an official level).
There are also questions of just how good compatibility would be (i.e.
what do we do in the autobuilder with software requiring, say, QtQuick
1.1), or how can we make version switching painless for people using the
QtSDK (which will always track official releases). The best would be,
as always, to have those integrated upstream and let them trickle down
through official channels. Now, while the trickling part is not
something I would hold my breath for in the case of the N900, I still
think it is very important that we keep things as close/merged with
upstream as possible. <br>
