It seems it's not completely stalled, there's activity in another bug report linked from the first one, and a claimed partial fix.
I don't have a 14.04 machine to test on right now, so could someone else test: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:canonical-qt5-edgers/qt5-proper sudo apt update sudo apt dist-upgrade Notes: - The patch needed changes especially for 14.04's Qt 5.2.1, I'm not sure if it's functional still or if I broke something in the process - The qtbase for 14.10 (which I could have tested) failed one unit test with a crash, which could be caused by the patch since it has not happened before. - We will eventually get the fix anyway with 5.3.2 to 14.10 or 15.04 since it was included in upstream's 5.3.2 branch, after which a backport to 14.04 LTS is feasible even if we wouldn't cherry pick it for current 5.3.0 - See the builds and patches for 5.3.0 and 5.2.1 respectively at https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/qt5-proper/+packages - feel free to get the original upstream patch (https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/93402/) and try backporting yourself in case some of my choices were erronous -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318584 Title: qt crashed when switching video out mode to external or internal only mode Status in Checkbox - Graphical Test Runner: Confirmed Status in OEM Priority Project: Confirmed Status in OEM Priority Project trusty series: New Status in Qt: New Status in “qtbase-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: checkbox-gui crashed with following console outputs: pure virtual method called terminate called without an active exception Aborted (core dumped) Steps to reproduce: 1. open checkbox-gui 2. connected external display 3. switch video output mode, usually by using the common video output switch hotkey.
