Bug Description
Availability: In universe, builds for all archs.
Rationale: A goal for Ubuntu 16.10 is to have unity8 installed by default as an optional session. qtsensors is part of the stack that is needed for this goal. Qtsensors was already in main earlier when qtwebkit was, bug #1192567.
Security: No known security history. No daemons or services.
Quality assurance: No bugs open in Debian. A bug about certain tests failing on builders is in Ubuntu (those tests only work in local installations and are disabled with a patch). The latest upstream stable LTS version is part of yakkety and upcoming Debian release. For yakkety, we will not upgrade to Qt 5.7 but stay with the 5.6 LTS.
Dependencies: All binary dependencies are in main.
Standard compliance: Packaging seems compliant with 1 lintian warning.
Maintenance: Qt Company maintains qtsensors as an official module in Qt. Qt 5.6 will be supported for bug and security fixes for three years.
the source was in main until 15.10 so just need to be repromoted
