Subject: [gentoo-dev] Would qt-3.1 solve the Linux font problem?

1 Dear Devs,
2
3 With the console (aka. Linux) font in konsole I get garbled chars
4 (line drawing chars) in mutt and mc. I found some hints in the
5 konsole-dev list as to solving this problem. Apparently this bug is
6 associated with qt-3.05 not picking the right character to test the
7 line drawing char capability of a font (apparently the "console"
8 font does not have this char what qt-3.05 picks). Qt-3.04 claimed
9 to be working, but it is not in portage and I do not want to mess
10 with my kde on a production machine...

12 Could anyone test that when we upgrade to kde-3.1, qt-3.1 will fix
13 this bug? Would KDE-3.04 or KDE-3.1 work with qt-3.04? What would be
14 the way to install qt-4.04 from sources without messing up my kde?
