Quick Question
by Xanadu on Monday 19/Mar/2007, @12:46

Hey!

With support for QT-3* ending in July, and KDE-4 possibly/probably/will not be out by then, I need to ask the question:

Will KDE-3* (3.5.6 specifically) still compile with QT-4* ?

I ask since I use Gentoo and have had QT-4 masked from my machines for a while now since I thought (correctly or otherwise...) had no use for it at this time since I'm not using anything that needs QT-4*, that I know of.

Thanx,
M.

No, kde 3.x will not compile with Qt 4.x.

Yea, I didn't think so, thus I have QT-4 masked on my machines since I have no need of it right now (and QT isn't the smallest package on the planet:

----------------------------------------------

$ equery size qt
[ Searching for packages matching qt... ]
* size of x11-libs/qt-3.3.6-r4
Total files : 509
Total size : 25486.58 KiB

----------------------------------------------

It's not *huge*, but...

Anyway, thanx for the reply.

M.
