Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.24
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
In the Qt/KDE team, we have provided a couple of 'user oriented'
configuration packages that sets the system up to have either qt4 or qt5
as the default Qt when invoking qmake and similar tools.
But these are end user oriented and should not be used for neither
package building nor other packages should depend on it.
A special exception to the above is that there might be some cases where
debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org might want to do it for 'chained'
configuration packages.
So, if you could add an Error for that.
If a suggested solution should be presented, likely the following:
build-dep qt4-default
Instead of Build-Depending on qt4-default, replace it with libqt4-dev,
and if your build system is qmake, please invoke qmake with the -qt4
first argument. If you use CMake, it should be picked up without further
changes.
build-dep on qt5-default
Instead of Build-Depending on qt5-default, replace it with qtbase5-dev,
and if your build system is qmake, please invoke qmake with the -qt5
first argument. If you use CMake, it should be picked up without further
changes.
dep on qtX default.
Depending on qtX-default is bad, because it forces a specific
configuration of the underlying system, a configuration that might not
be what the system owner actually wants, so please don't put it in your
Depends line
Thanks for your considerations
