Today we’ve released version 0.4.0 of lxqt-build-tools. This is the second needed piece for the upcoming LXQt 0.12.0 release.

Developers/Packagers

There is one very important change in the released version: We moved back the LXQt versioning bits back to liblxqt - so the upcoming release will not build with older versions of the tools, also the current release will not build with the new version of the tools.

Second noteworthy change is: We depend from now on minimum versions of Qt5Core (5.6.1) and glib-2.0 (>=2.50) to prevent FTBFS later in the build process.

A full list of changes is in the CHANGELOG file.
