Hi - thanks.

Ah, so are you saying that file should be in maybe a qwt-designer-plugin package?

Also I don't see how libqwt (6) and libqwt5 can be maintained from one spec. How can an update be made to libqwt5 now that the spec is modified for 6 ?

This is not my package and I really don't have time for all this hassle. This change has broken several packages all of which were previously working.

Can this mess be reverted and started again with some prior planning and testing?
