            Bug ID: 402518
           Summary: Qt5 requires non unix like path layout increasing the
                    burden of cross maintenance
           Product: umbrello
           Version: 2.26.0 (KDE Applications 18.08.0)
          Platform: Other
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: installer/packages
          Assignee: umbrello-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: ralf.habacker at freenet.de
        Depends on: 382423
  Target Milestone: ---

Qt5 on Windows uses a different runtime path layout as other required open
source packages. To fix this either it is required to patch Qt5 to follow
standard unix path layout (data in share, modules in lib and so one) 

With KDE4 it is simple to generate a Windows package for example from a linux
spec file (rename *.so to *.dll, dll files are located in 'bin' not in 'lib'
and so on), but now you need to know exactly which dll or data file is loaded
by which component to decide where it has to be installed.
