I'm sorry to say that 0.6.2 binaries are, in almost every case, identical

of hfs+ which was unknown to me: it turns out that a non-root hfs+ volume
defaults to not allowing the root user to own any files, and it silently
ignores requests to change ownership to root.)

Is libqt-mt from qt3-shlibs still linked with the xfree-86-4.2.1 libfreetype? This would still break it for Panther users and force them to recompile qt3 themselves.


So the missing dependencies on dlcompat-shlibs, which after all are
primarily the responsibility of the package maintainers, are still missing.
This is not a 0.6.1 or 0.6.2 specific problem, but has been a problem for
a long time.

I think it wouldn't hurt to recommend to everyone to install dlcompat-shlibs. It is small, and it doesn't interfere with anything on Panther, because newly-built packages won't be able to link to it.
