Was this the Qt downgrade that was being discussed on IRC?

Comment 5 Francesco Turco 2017-07-16 15:30:26 UTC

I had a similar problem while downgrading qt packages from version 5.9.1 to version 5.7.1-r1. As a workaround I uninstalled =dev-qt/qtgui-5.9.1 before emerging =dev-qt/qtgui-5.7.1-r1.

Confirmed. In my case it was also needed to uninstall =dev-qt/qtwidgets-5.9* due to file conflicts.

I can confirm as well. After unsuccessful upgrade to Qt-5.9.2 I decided to go back to 5.7.1. But I stuck on "cannot find -lqtharfbuzzng" error. This workaround fixed it.

Thanks

Nothing to do here I believe, major qt5 downgrades wouldn't happen anymore either way.
