> Yet here we have an example where this is blatantly not true. I'm not
being treated as an equal, because you've decided that 5 minutes of your
time is more valuable than 10 hours of my time. You saved 5 minutes of
your time and squandered 10 hours of mine. How is that equal? Or fair?

This is simply not an accurate reflection of how it went down --
Christoph did refer you to the next proper venue to inquire about the
availability of a newer version of Qt for your system to test with:
Ubuntu forums. The people there are more effective at helping with
Ubuntu-specific problems than we are, i.e. you're likely overestimating
our knowledge there. For example, I have honestly no idea if there is a
newer Qt available for your Ubuntu version anywhere. I'd have to ask
someone else or ask a search engine, too.

Christoph in particular triages tons and tons and tons of user reports
almost every day, and it's not reasonable to expect him to write long
step-by-step tutorials in every response that take into account all the
variables you might encounter and that he would need to research
himself. His time is better spent doing exactly what he did here, and
exactly what you request: He used the knowledge and time he does have
available to interpret and classify your problem, and tell you where to
go with it. There's no reason to assume he wasn't acting in good faith
and to the best of what his circumstances would allow.
