      We have turned Emulator in to maintain-only mode in Qt 5.10 and since have not fixed bugs on Emulator. Based on customer feedback there is very little use for the Emulator. Lately changes in Qt base has broken qtglesstream which in turn has broken Qt Emulator (QTBUG-72470), fix for this is laboursome and may not be worth the effort. There fore we propose to

      Drop Qt Emulator support in Qt 5.13

      This means we will no longer compile or deliver Qt Emulator for 5.13 onwards. We will still maintain Qt Emulator for Qt 5.12.

      This needs

      • Comms plan and activities (subtasks for Santtu)
      • Changes in documentation (Subtasks for Kalle's team)
      • Changes in Jenkins and how we build Qt DC (Subtasks for Kalle's team)
      • Other changes TBD
