Non-issue. Qt does not update the third-party content because of security issues in that content itself and does not issue advisories for bundled third- party. Only when Qt's use of that third-party is a security issue. You should subscribe to the advisory feed for each and every third party you use in your code and update as needed. > 2) support for newer compilers/OS versions/etc. that may cause trouble. Currently a non-issue, since Qt 5.15 is less than a year old. It may become an issue in two or three years' time, but hopefully by then the Qt 6.x content set will meet peoples' requirements. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel DPG Cloud Engineering _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
