Hi Ana,

Thanks for your work on Qt.

I'm very much aware of this, and starting the switch to the Qt5 port for
the qlandkartegt package. See the discussion on the debian-gis list:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-gis/2015/05/msg00007.html

The first revision is available in experimental, but it fails to build on
armel & armhf due to an OpenGL issue that the other architectures don't
suffer from.

I've haven't had the time to reproduce the issue on a porterbox, hopefully
it specific to the package mix in experimental and doesn't affect
unstable, so we can get the Qt5 port of qlandkartegt in unstable soon.

Kind Regards,

Bas
