Tails users usually can't really build it from source=E2=80=94 talks is a l= ive boot mostly stateless linux distribution for privacy applications. It's really good in general. I agree that we shouldn't be statically linking QT on linux generally (due to things like theming), though maybe we could just have the build process dump out a seperate extra static QT binary just for these other cases? I feel like the work maintaining it would be less than what we've had in answering questions/complaints about it.
