I don't think this B) option has any impact other than the 80kB library appearing on rootfs and the need to add the build dependency in affected packages. This is already done in the Qt 5.3.2 landing PPA.
The mtdev is only used if evdev input driver is in use, ie. this can improve multi touch on desktop but does not affect the phone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to appmenu-qt5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379152 Title: Needs building dependency on libmtdev-dev (or making QPlatformSupport public) Status in Application menu for Qt5: New Status in Qt integration with the Mir display server: New Status in QT Ubuntu: New Status in “appmenu-qt5” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “maliit-framework” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “qtmir” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “qtubuntu” package in Ubuntu: New Status in Debian GNU/Linux: Won't Fix Status in “qtmir” package in Ubuntu RTM: In Progress Bug description: Because of packaging changes in Qt Base in Qt 5.3.2, packages using qplatformsupport from private headers will need to add an additional dependency to compile against it. From Debian bug report: --- This comes from QPlatformSupport stuff which creates a static library that needs this linking. It also happens that QPlatformSupport is private stuff, so there is really no way to solve this but either stop using private stuff or helping upstream to make QPlatformSupport public (which would be really helpful). This will in turn mean that it will become a dynamic lib and this bug can be fixed. --- So: A) someone works in qtbase upstream to make the QPlatformSupport public, or B) workaround with adding libmtdev-dev build dependencies This bug refers more to the B) option to get Qt 5.3.2 packages move forward.
