I am really looking forward to the new 4.3.5 version, as Scooter Software has now fixed the Thunar context menus according to this email I got this morning:
We've released a Beyond Compare context menu that supports Thunar 1.8/GTK3 in Beyond Compare 4.3.5.

Updated to version 4.3.1.24438-1. qt4 dependency removed as it's no longer required.
Enjoy!

It looks like 4.3.1 ships all the Qt4 dependencies alongside the binary - perhaps the qt4 dependency is no longer needed.

@rku I wondered the same thing about the need for Qt 4 as it has been unsupported since 2015, so I contacted Scooter Software today.
This was their response:
"We're working on a Qt 5 version of Beyond Compare. As an intermediate step, we might release a version of Beyond Compare 4 for Linux that includes Qt 4 in the package for distributions that no longer support it.
Beyond Compare 4.2.10 on Mac is only available as a 32-bit application. Apple will drop support for 32-bit apps in macOS 10.15 (September or October). Work on a 64-bit Mac version has dominated our development calendar. Once we have a the 64-bit Mac version of BC officially released then we'll be able to schedule more time on other issues, such as Linux Qt 5 support or bundling of Qt 4."
So it looks like we will be stuck with Qt 4 for a while longer, although a Qt 5 version is coming. All in all good news then.

You can build the last version of Beyond Compare v4 I packaged (
4.4.7.28397) by doing this:Since you have a license for v4, you might be interested in looking at the upgrade policy at https://www.scootersoftware.com/kb/upgradepolicy .
I hope it helps!
