[Bug 1474313] Re: Needs to b-d on libqt5xcbqpa5 to be able to run tests under xvfb

 

Having libqt5gui5 recommend libqt5xcbqpa5 will *not* guarantee that this
package will be installed during other $package build.

Should we maybe make qtbase5-dev depend on libqt5xcbqpa5 (-dev package
depends on all other library packages anyway)?

Bug description:
  UPDATE: qtbase will be changed to Recommend libqt5xcbqpa5 instead.

  
  Qt 5.5 packaging currently introduces a new package libqt5xcbqpa5, which is required to be installed during build time for being able to run tests under X(vfb).

  The change cannot be landed other than together with Qt 5.5, or after
  it for packages that do not require a rebuild. So, there are no
  actions except for preparing the branch. Another possibility would
  probably be to switch to Mir's mirvfb.

  Packages that need to be fixed together with Qt 5.5: webbrowser-app

  Packages that can be fixed afterwards (but it'd be useful to run the
  tests before to see if they actually pass): camera-app messaging-app
  signon-ui ubuntu-system-settings ubuntu-system-settings-online-
  accounts
