Thanks for working on Qt packaging, definitely very important for
Buildroot.

Do you know when the final 5.8 is supposed to be released? If it's
released before Buildroot 2017.02, then we could take your patches
right now, and update them to the final release when it comes out. This
way, they would get some exposure (both in terms of Buildroot users
exposure, and in terms of autobuilder testing).

Thanks,

Thomas
