[Gambas-user] About qt, a little issue

[Jorge Carrión]

Something like this, but based on S.O. Version (system.FullVersion returns
the Gambas compiler version). In our company all computers work with Linux
Mint. The problem is with Linux Mint 19 and superior versions, that are
based on qt5 and doesn't show menu's icons if the project is linked to qt4.
With Linux Mint 18.X or 17.X it works fine with qt4 and doesn't even work
with qt5.

All this issue oblies me to generate packets for qt4 and qt5 and a third
program who decides what of both to launch  (Like you propose) and upload
all of them to our repository. Being both projects exactly the same I feel
like I'm wasting time a lot.

I like to know how to do a "meta package" in the repository who decides
what (qt4 or qt5) install on clients computers but I have no clue about it.

Best regards
