Hi Benjamin,

Qt 5 will officially support macOS 11 in upcoming 5.15 and 5.12 patch releases, but should work fine already. If you encounter issues with the current releases (or preferably after building from git), please let us know by filing bug reports. Thanks!

Cheers,
Tor Arne

Hi all.  Just wondering whether there is any plan for any Qt 5.x release to support macOS 11.  At present, Qt 5.15 supports only through macOS 10.15 (https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/macos.html#supported-versions), as far as I can tell, and my app built on macOS 10.15 apparently does not run properly on macOS 11 (so my users inform me).  Since it looks like it will be a little while before a Qt 6 release is really solid (I just saw on the list that the first LTS release of Qt 6 is expected in September 2021, almost a year from now), it would be really nice if macOS 11 were added to the list of supported releases for 5.15.  Any chance of that?  I have users who are already on macOS 11 now; I’d like to have a better story for them.  Thanks for any info!

Cheers,
-B.
