[Releasing] Preparing to release repackaged version of Qt 4.8.3 with Digia copyrights

[Salovaara Akseli]

Hi all,

We are preparing to release a repackaged version of Qt 4.8.3 with Digia copyrights (Qt 4.8.3-1) very soon. The Qt 4.8.3-1 contains the same functionality as the Qt 4.8.3 release with copyright changes from Nokia to Digia (sha1 has not been changed). This copyright change is a legal requirement which just have to be done. There was a problem related to MinGW in the Qt 4.8.3 release which should be now fixed on Qt 4.8.3-1.

Please note that we cannot create release from repository with copyright changes without changing sha1. Therefore we have been directly modifying copyrights from package content and Qt 4.8.3-1 cannot be found from repository. Qt 4.8.4 release will follow normal process again and will be available also from repository as previous releases.

Br,
Akseli
