Private message by Michal Hoftich (tex4ht head developer):
oolatex is not recommended way to use Tex4ht for the ODT conversion.
It is better to use
make4ht -f odt mwe.tex
make4ht fixes some issues in ODT files
This is candidate for stable.

To do this, hard-coded test for xcb had to be replaced with a call to
platformName(). Since this method does not exist in Qt4, we emulate
it.
Note that Qt5 uses xcb bindings for X11 system, while Qt4 relies on
older X11 bindings. We return platorm == "qt4x11" in this case.
Fixes bug #11746.

The latest debian-based distributions have moved away from
the "python" package dependency to "python2" and "python3".

This amends ea81faa9 that only took into account the postscript format
and did not consider that without GUI an image is not available even if
if it is actually cached. In this case we load the image for obtaining
its dimensions in order to correct the clipping bounding box.
Now LyXHTML export for Spreadsheet.lyx is errorles, but stil we need a wrapper
to remove unneeded 'Ark' captions.

Instead of working around crashes in update of caret geometry, only
request it as needed. The actual computation will take place just
before painting the caret.
It might be that this is overkill and that caret geometry should be
updated unconditionally. One would have to to some timing while idle to
ascertain that.
Fixes bug #11912.

It is not a good idea to call caretPosAndHeight when the caret is in a
paragraph that is not in cached metrics. This can happen when not
using "cursor follows scrollbar".
This commit refactor things a bit so that testing is done in
BufferView.

The rules for typesetting math differ from the rules for typesetting
text. For example, two italic 'f' chars have to be typeset more closely
than two 'o' chars in text mode, but not in math mode. Qt provides a
method that returns the distance appropriate for drawing a subsequent
character in text mode, but nothing for math mode. Typically, the
distance appropriate for drawing the next character in math mode is
the actual width span by the character, corrected by the rules of
an appendix in the TeXbook. Recently, those rules are followed more
closely in LyX but not exactly, and we have to find a way to adapt to them.
Some symbols may need more spacing around them than the width they span.
So, we use the distance suggested by Qt, unless it is less than the
width of the rectangle bounding the symbol. Before Qt 5.11 the used method
was QFontMetrics::width(), but since then it has been declared obsolete
in favor of QFontMetrics::horizontalAdvance(), whose name conveys better
its meaning.
