Title:
  qtubuntu-desktop fails using Qt 5.2 on Mir

Status in qtubuntu package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unity8-desktop-session package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Qt5.2 introduces a new feature in which it assumes that only OpenGL|ES
  is supported if the QPA support is not limited to only OpenGL surface
  formats.  This causes a failure to compile shaders on the desktop when
  the Mir QPA is used, because the Mir QPA supports both OpenGL and
  OpenGL|ES.

  The result of this combination of features is that the Unity 8 desktop
  preview session fails to render anything.  That's a critical blocker
  for the 14.04 LTS release.

  Since the qtubuntu-desktop package is already limited to supporting
  only OpenGL on the desktop, this feature of Qt 5.2 can be worked
  around by having the Mir QPA(s) force only the OpenGL surface format
  on the desktop.
