[14:01] <lisandro> a user in #qt is asking for qtgamepad in ubuntu 18.04
[14:01] <lisandro> could it be possible that it is not there?
[14:06]  * acheronuk looks
[14:08] <acheronuk> lisandro: well, no. even debian only have it since 5.10, and 18.04 is on 5.9 LTS
[14:08] <lisandro> ah, right
[14:08] <lisandro> it came after 5.9
[14:09] <acheronuk> lisandro: looks like it was a module in 5.9, but guess neither you nor we wanted or needed it at that point
[14:10] <lisandro> iirc it was not yet official
[14:10] <lisandro> ergo, API/ABI stable
[14:10] <acheronuk> right
[14:10] <acheronuk> lisandro: yeah, the 5.9 api link take me to "Qt Documentation (Technology Preview)"
[16:21] <lubot5> <tsimonq2> Is it stable in 5.9 or still unstable?
[16:37] <lubot5> <mitya57> Technology preview means “API may change”. But you need to check whether it actually changed since then.
[16:37] <lubot5> <tsimonq2> Ah.
[16:57] <lisandro> or build 5.10 against 5.9 *maybe*
