The decision about removing Qt3 has been made 9 months ago, the decision about |
| 10 |
the upcoming mask has been made 4 months ago. So you had all the time to move |
| 11 |
to Qt4. We aint gonna maintain a package ( or library if you prefer ) that has |
| 12 |
been abandoned from upstream a long time ago. So if you still want to use it, |
| 13 |
please add kde-sunset overlay. We dont have neither the manpower nor the time |
| 14 |
to patch/fix/maintainer/etc/etc/ Qt3 anymore. However, we DO offer you like 6 |
| 15 |
different versions of Qt4 |
| 16 |
*4.5.3 |
| 17 |
*4.6.1 |
| 18 |
*4.6.2 |
| 19 |
*4.6.9999 |
| 20 |
*4.7.9999 |
| 21 |
*4.7-prerelease ( soon ) |
| 22 |
*4.9999 |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Which we actively maintain. We decided to move forward and we are aware that |
| 25 |
few of our users might not like it. If you still want a working Qt3, please |
| 26 |
take care of it on kde-sunset |

Thanks |
