Qt 5.12.1 LTS has nearly three-hundred bug fixes. The fixes in this point release range from animated GIFs not rendering correctly to Wayland client flickering when running with NVIDIA graphics. But there are a ton of fixes all over the place with this first 5.12 LTS update. A complete list of the fixes can be found here.

Qt 5.13 meanwhile is under development as the next six-month feature release of the Qt5 tool-kit due out around May. Qt6 is also expected to begin taking shape this year and the tentative plans for Qt 6.0.0 put it at the end of 2020.
