As I've mentioned before in the list, Fedora fixes are not coming. I'm spending my time working on the QT 1.4 branch right now. The current branch will be maintained as is + upstream fixes for now.
The Fedora + QT users is such a low amount of users, it's really not worth it especially since FC6 compiles FC7/8 properly in most cases. If someone wants to step up and rewrite the current spec files (and send me diffs) then I will go ahead and release them. I can't do it all myself. EE On Sat, Mar 1, 2008 at 6:18 AM, Thomas M.
