I disagree. This problem is going to affect Support a lot more, as it will be difficult to get the actual version number from people. When customers come for support and say they have 5.6.1, Support will have to tell the customer "please re-download and install the new version" because they won't be sure that the customer didn't download the old version last week. As for support on the IRC channel and mailing list,s if we don't change the .qmake.conf file, I will simply tell people to *downgrade* to 5.6.0 or wait for 5.6.2. Think of packagers that don't pay that good an attention to this mailing list. They may not realise that it's a different version and may simply call it 5.6.1. I will disavow any and all QML-related problems in 5.6.1 in IRC and the interest ML if it sticks to the same version number. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
