You are right, QWidget is not deprecated: QDeclarative is. The branch
(lp:~guillaume-chereau/stellarium/no-qml1) removes the dependency to
QDeclarative, that is why my suggestion is that we merge it, and do not
switch to qml for now.  Just to make it clear: the no-qml1 branch is
different from the qml branch I did, and only introduce a few minor
changes.  It should be relatively safe to merge it.

In contrast, the qml branch is a full rewrite of the GUI. I started it
because I thought it would make the code simpler (and, yes, to fix the
gap between desktop and mobile version).  After working on it for a
while I am not so sure about it anymore.

Guillaume
