Bug#928778: [libqt5core5a] System Qt version no longer supported upstream



Package: libqt5core5a
Version: 5.7.1+dfsg-3+deb9u1
Severity: normal
Tags: security

I was aware that Qt 5.6.3 (LTS) has recently reached end-of-support
(2019/03/16) but I hadn't stopped to think that 5.7.1 is well past the
end-point for non-Long Term Support upstream (2017/06/16) - that being
the case and for Debian "Stretch" being the current *stable* version
until "Buster" gets out the door in the next few months, isn't it a good
idea, at least from a security and safety point of view, for Debian to
upgrade to a version, such as Qt 5.9.7 which has long-term support from
Qt until 2020/05/31...?
