Important Changes ----------------- - - [QTBUG-60565] Fixed that Chromium was incorrectly exporting its own new - and delete operators in Qt 5.8.0. However, applications that linked and - used those versions of new or delete will not be able to load with 5.9, - where they no longer exist. This primarily affects shared Linux builds, - where exported Qt symbols were tagged with Qt_5. + - Configure options are now handled by the global configure script. This + means options previously controlled by WEBENGINE_CONFIG options should + now use configure flags. For instance the configure command-line option + -proprietary-codecs replaces WEBENGINE_CONFIG+=use_proprietary_codecs. + - [QTBUG-54650, QTBUG-59922] Accessibility is now disabled by default on + Linux, like it is in Chrome, due to poor options for enabling it + conditionally and its heavy performance impact. Set the environment + variable QTWEBENGINE_ENABLE_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY to enable it again.
