Also, all of the prebuilt binaries are now Qt5 based and Qt5 is considered
the stable and supported framework to use for building Subsurface. As of
Subsurface 4.5 we are switching our build system to cmake. qmake based
builds are no longer supported.
At this point Qt5 is required, Qt5.4 or newer is recommended and on the
Mac, in order to get native Bluetooth support, Qt5.5 is necessary.
Similarly, in order for our cloud storage to be fully functional you need
libgit2 0.23 or newer.
