Very carefully. It's built on a reasonably old Linux distribution, the oldest of all of them that are still supported. It also builds with all or almost all third-party content bundled, instead of depending on system libraries, and some features disabled where system libraries would be required (for example, journald integration, zstd compression support, etc.). Your Linux distribution's packages are superior builds in almost every aspect, except that of being run in other distributions. Because the pre-built binaries from download.qt.io contain bundled third- parties that do get a couple of security advisories per year, you must be able to rebuild the binaries on a moment's notice. So don't trust the binaries you download from download.qt.io except for development: for your releases, you should build Qt from source. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Principal Engineer - Intel DCAI Fleet Engineering and Quality
