This is by no means unique to .pr[fio] files: there's lots of code that
we've deleted on dev, that shall need fixes on 5.15. When a fix gets
picked to 5.15, there is a risk that it'll apply and maybe even
integrate; if so, a follow-up commit only on 5.15 can supply the parts
of the change that aren't present on dev. More usually, the pick will
get conflicts or fail to integrate, so you'll get the chance to amend
the picked commit on 5.15. (Even in the first case, if you get the mail
promptly, you can potentially unstage the pick before it gets integrated
and fix it likewise.)
This applies to all the code that's being deleted on dev, including but
by no means limited to qmake's configuration.
