>>Hi, I think there something wrong with the sources package Nov 10th (I

>>
>>1- the folder name is 'releaseexporttools_src_work_win" instead of "qt-

>>
[Heikkinen Jani] This is known issue and will be fixed later

>>2- the configure script in the main folder gives an error on Linux. I believe it has

>>to build.
>>
[Heikkinen Jani] As Thiago already replied, .7z package is with windows line endings

>>3- all the submodules are missing the examples folder
[Heikkinen Jani] Nice finding! Please write an error report to the Jira

>>I know it's still a snapshot, but I just wanted to report what I found.

>>Thanks
