We probably should strongly advice distributions to not use Qt 5.8.0.

I informed them about the Wayland issue, but told them to also ignore it 
if it doesn't matter to them.
So if we have more issues we should tell distros about it. It just makes 
all of us look bad if there are known issues and distros ship it without 
better knowledge.
