[Qgis-developer] Troubles with qwtpolar

[J.O. Williams]

Andreas,

I would like to suggest that qwtpolar option be changed to OFF 
permanently and use the embedded copy exclusively.  I have had trouble 
with option a couple of times and have tried to install the qwtpolar 
library.  And have wasted a hour each time trying to reinstall before I 
remember the change needed. The library  is no longer being maintained 
and is probably dead code.

I also build using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

TIA

J.O. Williams
