QString::sprintf() is deprecated in the latest Qt version, and spawns
a lot of warnings:

The documentation also says:
"Warning: We do not recommend using QString::asprintf() in new Qt code.
Instead, consider using QTextStream or arg(), both of which support
Unicode strings seamlessly and are type-safe."
Use QTextStream as suggested.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
