[Bug 1553376] Re: Sync pushpin 1.8.0-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Timo Jyrinki]

Thank you for the request! If this would be wanted to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS,
it's already in feature freeze and the process documented at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze_Exceptions
should be followed.

The porting work to Qt 5 is substantial and there seem to be also
internal code refactorings, as seen at the commits at
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/jan/pushpin.git/log/?h=upstream
after the (not tagged) 1.7.0 release.

This could also be synced after 16.04 LTS is released in April, to the
next development Ubuntu version 16.10.
