One remark about this: Qt 5.7 is not the most issue-free version but I understand why the 5.6 LTS version was not preferred instead. However, there is 1 thing with using stock Qt that's potentially problematic on a CI. It lacks a QtDBus patch that Qt cannot at the moment incorporate but that everyone should be using because it prevents crashing on exit under certain conditions. R.
