    Hi @gmatbarua,

    What do you mean by "repository" and "official installer"?

    Also, this forum does not currently support polls.

    Hi @JKSH ,

    By repository he probably means the Qt package that is shipped with his linux distribution.
    ie. debian uses apt-get to install them. Those are likely to be of an older version compared to the ones when you use the online installer.

    Edit : since Qt can be used cross platform, a poll doesn't seem to be a good way to get statistics. We all use different OS 'es.
    online installer for :
    Win 8.1, 10
    Mac OS X El Capitan
    Debian Jessie (for the time being)

      Makes sense :)

      I'm mainly using Windows 10 + Official installer.

      I'm also using, in a VM, Ubuntu 17.04 + Official installer. The distro-provided Qt packages tend to be a few versions behind.

                      Debian buster (testing) with Qt built from git + the version from the repo (currently 5.7.1).
                      Creator as IDE.
                      g++ as a compiler.

                      I only test on Windows, but there I use the online installer to get what I need. Creator as IDE and mingw as compiler, I rarely compile with MSVC.
