Hi Stefan,

You're most familiar with the QR plugin infrastructure, as you created
it. Do you have any ideas on how to add the ability to disable them on
demand?

Thanks!

From the bug report:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/qreator/+bug/1181723

«While focusing on the Touch version of Qreator, the desktop version
will be kept in maintenance mode (i.e. bugfixes and a very limited scope
for new features).

However, now that we've got a stable version, I'd like to see it widely
used. I'm working to get it packaged for Ubuntu (see bug 1178202), but
it should be entirely possible to package it for other distros, as as
far I'm aware, the only distro-specific feature without fallback we've
got right now is the Ubuntu Software Center QR code type.

I'd like to disable the USC QR type for Debian and Fedora, but rather
than relying on a distro patch (e.g. removing the USC plugin files from
the package), I believe we could do it in a relatively simple and
elegant way by detecting the distro and adding a switch to disable
plugins on demand.»

Cheers,
David.
