[QtonPi] Fwd: Volunteer wanted for generating Qt 5 binaries for Raspbian

[Johan Thelin]

Hi Lazlo,

Thanks for the tip! We do have an OBS-based infrastructure setup, but
not yet in the open. What we will do is this:

1. Get a deb repository up ASAP, building the deb using the scripts
pointed out in Samuels original post.
2. Working on setting up a Raspbian OBS target and start building Qt 5
against it, making any tricks used to do so public.

This way, we can have a solution in place quickly, and then a proper
build setup in the second step.

Best regards,

Johan Thelin
