Hallo guys,
Qt tends to replace many user-defined cursors with its own internal cursors.
This is annoying, as the only cursor theme that would look complete and
coherent is qt own theme, which is not that eyecandy.
Having qt handling cursors properly is quite easy: qt source must be patched
with this diff I'm attaching, and configured with the "-xcursor" option.
Why shouldn't qt be repackaged to allow this improvement?
