 qmake
 -----
 
- - For commercial builds, qmake now checks for a valid Qt license. This
-   requires setting up a Qt Account (or .qt-license file) on the
-   development machine.
-
- - Important Behavior Changes:
-   * A lot of quoting issues have been fixed. As a side effect, qmake
-     has become more sensitive to over-quoted file names in project
-     files.
+ - [QTBUG-3069][Linux] Building with -rpath will now create DT_RUNPATH tags
+   instead of DT_RPATH, allowing LD_LIBRARY_PATH to override the rpath.
+ - [QTBUG-41917][VS] Fixed project generation when PRECOMPILED_SOURCE is
+   in a different directory than PRECOMPILED_HEADER.
+ - [QTBUG-42454][MinGW] Added handling of QMAKE_MANIFEST.
+ - [QTBUG-13496][MSVC] CONFIG+=no_batch is now automatically added when
+   multiple sources with the same base name exist.
+ - Added $$[QT_INSTALL_PREFIX/dev], etc. properties which reflect the
+   on-device locations of Qt (the -prefix, etc. passed to configure).
+ - Building under MSys is less problematic now.
+ - [QTBUG-37269] Fixed cross-compilation for Unix on Windows/MinGW.
+ - [QTBUG-8202][QTBUG-20566][QTBUG-44685] Fixed distclean targets.
+ - [QTBUG-43162][VS] Added DISTFILES support for Visual Studio projects.
+ - [QTBUG-41753][VS][WinPhone] Fixed MdilXapCompile deployment step.
+ - [QTBUG-44960][VS] Reworked .dll deployment. Added $$QMAKE_DLL_PATHS.
+ - [QTBUG-44823][MSVC] Fixed unreasonable values being passed in /VERSION.
+   Added $$VERSION_PE_HEADER to override the value.
+ - [WinRT] The icon handling was reworked/extended.
+ - [QTBUG-12711] Fixed infinite recursion on malformed .prl files.
