the strange thing is that my 4.4 designer didnt produce these problems. increase qt requirements only because designer flaws is too little gain compared to the problems we introduce for people wanting new lyx in older linux distros. the sound reason would be that we use some new features which are hard to maintain via ifdefs, which you forget to fix anyway. if this is not the case we can handle the current designer problems in another way - for trunk we allow using even designer 4.5, and shortly before realease, say in some rcX, we just re-open/save the few problematic ui files. opinions? pavel
