Clear Linux, hum? Are they re-inventing the wheel? And the hammer, the
nail, and the saw, what have you...

"Kata Container with Clear Linux"? What an obscure technology, and
what does it has to do with the Qt project and build system in
general?
So because Intel re-invents the wheel the Qt project shouldn't use
this or that? Honestly, I fail to follow you here.
