Sorry if I gave you the impression of being complaining, but I'm not.
I only reported an issue that I experienced and I am looking for a solution to it.
After all, isn't it what alphas and betas are for ?

By the way I changed QT_CONFIG because of this:

Because it doesn't hurt the other 4 platforms I'm building on and by the way even if I did, it doesn't solve the pkg-config problem of 5.8.0 on MacOS.

Anyway I created QTBUG-56164 so let's please discuss there in case
