1 Hello,
2
3 Has anyone any experiences with developing software with QT4?
4
5 checking whats available, with 'emerge -pv qt', I see:
6 x11-libs/qt-3.3.4-r8
7
8 Nothing else... If I add x11-libs/qt to the package.keywords
9 file, I get
10 x11-libs/qt-4.1.1
11
12 after editing the package.keyword file, If I run emerge -uDp world,
13 it want to upgrade qt:
14 Calculating world dependencies ...done!
15 [ebuild U ] x11-libs/qt-3.3.4-r9 [3.3.4-r8]
16
17 I really confused as this is not very clear what the hardmasked, testing
18 and stable versions of QT........?
19
20 I've been told that QT 4 is 'very young' which I interpret as unstable
21 and buggy. How do I tell if qt-4.1.1 is hard masked or testing....
22 as I've never seen this before.
23
24
25 Should I avoid qt4 or is it OK for use, it's just testing on Gentoo?
26
27
28 Any feedback is appreciated,
