--- Comment #1 from Andreas Cord-Landwehr <cordlandw...@kde.org> ---
The hard build-dep was done before the dependency freeze of the 15.12 release.
So I do not see any problem with it. As of now we do not have a global policy
that defines the maximum Qt version one may depend on.
I agree that for convenience of the build system it would be good. But
Artikulate hard depends on Qt 5.5. The major requirement is the QtQuick
TreeView which was newly introduced in Qt 5.5. and porting away from it would
be a major refactoring of the whole UI (not possible in a bugfix release). A
smaller build dependency would work (e.g. 5.4, since ABI is compatible and the
application would *only* crash at runtime), but to make this
runtime-requirement obvious I want to keep it this way.
