[SailfishDevel] Qt 5.2 in devel

[Robin Burchell]

Hello intrepid developers,

Qt 5.2 rebuilds have (finally, thank god) finished in devel. I’ve updated a single device (via version —dup) so far without too many ill effects (see below), and done some brief smoke testing. The device rebooted the user session successfully, and rebooted to a UI OK, applications start, and at a very light play, they appear to be in reasonable shape.

The one symptom of bad behavior I’ve seen so far is that orientation does not appear to work (at least once), this appears to be a hardware adaptation problem: /system/bin/sensord was not running on reboot. Rebooting again made it appear.

There are some rough edges, but nothing apparently life threatening:

  *   Gunnar, can you please remove the v8 dependency from the scene graph adaptation plugin?
  *   Bernd, can you please remove cutes-qt5 from sailfish-version (and remove cutes-qt5 from the repos)? I guess there’s nothing else requiring it after backup’s removal of it (Denis/Giulio, can you help out with anything needed here?)
  *   Cor appears to be failing to build on ARM in devel. I don’t think this is related to Qt, but needs checking. Denis?

Developers: please upgrade your devices with some caution and see how your areas look.

I’m going to head to bed now. If problems occur, if it isn’t urgent, file it in bugzilla, and add the Qt5.2 keyword & CC me. If it is urgent, please try pretend that it isn’t until I’m around again, or alternatively, you can (try to) call me on +47 9059 2624. If you’re lucky, I may even leave the phone off silent :).

BR,
Robin
