Hi,
So, Qt 4.8.7 was released last month[1]. Support for Qt4 stops at the
end of 2015, and 4.8.7 is planned to be the last ever release of Qt4.
It's still mandated by the long-awaited LSB 5 but I think it's fair to
say that the majority of developers have moved to Qt5. So, what should
we do with Qt4 moving forward?[2] I see several options:
1) There's still lots of people using Qt4 in production, please keep it
in oe-core! (and revisit in six months time)
2) Move Qt4 recipes and classes to a meta-qt4 layer now so that oe-core
1.9 ships without Qt4, and anyone wanting full LSB compliance or Qt4
will need to add that layer to their distro.
Personally, I vote for (2). Any other comments?
#2 sounds fine.
would recipes-lsb move out to its own layer too?
