It is not that I don't want to compile Qt 4.7, I already do have it. Being able to compile with 4.6 can be a bit more attractive to the users (not developers) using distros that come out with packaged 4.6.. it's a matter of reaching a wider target. In the end I'm stopping tracking master to give a chance to 4.6 users and will rebase my Inspector plugin when Qt 4.7 starts to get adopted ;-) Regards, Enrico _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
