I requested that change, tested it and it works ~okay - there are some
UI / font rendering issues, but all of those problems are apparently
caused by Qt itself, so nothing we can solve. Also, they don't make
using Discover impossible or harder, it just doesn't look as nice.

So, for me it's working with Debian's version of Qt 5.6.
