I have written some apps with Qt3 and I still work on them from time to time. I have libqt3-mt-dev installed for this purpose. I'd like to start working with Qt4, so I tried installing libqt4-dev. Of course, it conflicts with libqt3-mt-dev. Is this a permanent situation? I'd really like them to coexist. The same goes for qt3-dev-tools and qt4-dev-tools (or, rather, their dependencies).
I understand that Qt4 has compatibility headers for Qt3, but that they are deprecated. Furthermore, new code is supposed to include headers without the .h suffix, which has been dropped to match standard C++ library headers. It should be possible to split off the suffix-less headers for new code and the headers for compatibility into separate packages, and only the compatibility headers should need to conflict with libqt3-mt-dev. libqt4-dev can become a virtual package which depends on both header packages. The dev tools (and dependencies) should be easy enough to deal with just by using alternatives. Does anyone see anything wrong with this? --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
