The alternative is to patch the gambas runtime so it prefers qt5, this allows qt4 and qt5 to co-exist. However I'm not sure this matters: in Gambas there are absolutely no API differences between qt4/qt5, all you have to do is change the settings to use gb.gui.qt, which people will have to do anyway to access WebView We should keep the Conflicts however, so that when people upgrade their old version of gambas3-gb-qt4 is deleted, otherwise total havoc will ensue. >> Since we have some RC bugs, and many many fixes in experimental (and the >> package isn't in testing right now) >> how do you feel about uploading on unstable? I think so, we can wait to see if anyone complains about the lack of qt4 ;-) As an aside: what ever happened to the debian/patches directory and the patches that were in there? Ian
