Hi Greg,

seems with following commit [1] in QT 5.12 there might be a need to have also statx [2] backported to older LTS kernels. What do you think?

Best, Philip

I don't understand, what is wrong with using 4.11 or newer if you want to use statx? That's an almost 2 year old kernel, no new devices better be using an old/obsolete kernel like that and still wanting to use a brand new version of QT at the same time.

And we do not backport new features to older kernels, you know this :)

thanks,
