Package: qt4-x11 Version: 4.3.2-1 Severity: important Tags: patch When investigating the build failure of ktoon on mips/mipsel/arm I found it comes down to two problems in qt4-x11:
a) It mis-assumes that non-IRIX MIPS systems generally have no FPU. The appended patch fixes that. b) For ARM and MIPS it defines qreal as a float, which confusingly means isDouble() returns a float value. But other parts of the package, as well as users of qt4-x11, continue to use double types instead of qreal, which leads to data type mismatches, and eventual build failures. Unless the intent is to outlaw the use of "double" or "float" for all uses of qt4-x11 I regard this feature as inherently broken. I'm also dubious about the performance gain achieved by this hack, I CC debian-arm for more insight into this.
