Qwt package dependencies
Hello,
I noticed that the Qwt package (BR2_PACKAGE_QWT) depends on Qt 4.8 (BR2_PACKAGE_QT). But I have installed and tested Qt 5.5 already, and plan to develop Qt5/Qwt apps.
Do I have to install Qt 4 too just to satisfy the dependencies ? Can I tweak some file like package/qwt/Config.in ?
Regards,
David.

At the time Qwt was packaged in Buildroot, we did not have Qt5 yet, so the dependency was naturally on Qt (i.e. Qt4).
Time has passed, and no one seemed interested in Qwt with Qt5 as we still have a Qwt package that only depends on Qt4.
I checked on Qwt's homepage,and they do claim Qt5 comaptibility.
So, you are welcome to provide a patch that changes the Qwt dependencies to also include Qt5! ;-)
