Hi Guys,

In regards to the topic just remembered that it might be possible to use
alien for converting the packages.

Just my two cents

It is not so easy, as BSD way is not to use RPMS, while main toaster
advantage is it's RPM nature. A friend of mine came to BSD world from
RedHad based linux distros, that is why he uses RPM even on BSD - it
is just a matter of habbit.

Well, it is still possible to port QT on BSD and distribute is as a
bunch of tarballs if we will find some BSD geek who will want to
maintenance it. But I don't think it is a urgent task for qt-dev team
;-D.
