I hoped that somebody, who is more involved in qt *programming* would make a statement, what to keep and what to wipe out. But this didn't happen. So I suggested a sane way of finding out the right solution a) introduce something like USE_X11 for QT, i.e.: USE_QT=yes turns on build dependency on QT 1.40 b) Every port, that uses qt should then be modified to have USE_QT=yes in the Makefile c) - If every port can be build without trouble, then we can nuke the old qt libs ! Hurray ! (* This is preferred *) d) - If some ports can't be compiled or run with qt1.40, we turn on the old qt lib build dependency in those ports But then we would have to modify the qt ports in a way, that they can be installed in parallel. I hope c) becomes true, this would save some work.
