[RQt-devel] qtbase supports (and requires) Qt5

[Michael Lawrence]

Has anyone managed to test this independently?
Maybe test cranvas?

I'd like to push it out to CRAN, because they want some stuff fixed anyway.
Could always release off a Qt4 branch, but it would be good to get this out.

Thanks,
Michael
