There is an interesting thread with some links about this problem in the
archlinux forum:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=193123
Our Qt5 packaging essentially implements that already, includes a
/usr/share/qt5/qtlogging.ini
that contains:
[Rules]
*.debug=false
See also:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1227295
for some history behind that.
Now, is it possible you have a custom
~/.config/QtProject/qtlogging.ini
that may be overriding our no-debug default?
