Much closer to 4 years old ...

Which I'd agree wouldn't be very long if it wasn't for the fact that there is 
absolutely no hardship in upgrading to 14.04. I don't even think our Ubuntu 
packagers have any interest in supporting 12.04 any more.

Even commercial users of MythTV,  producing appliances aren't using 
distributions as old as 12.04.

Well to that point, QT 4.8 IS over 5 years old and is officially EOL.

Certainly post 0.28 maintaining QT 4 support would be impossible since it 
would preclude us taking advantage of any QT 5 features.
