As we see, the man page was *not* reset. moc-qt3.1.gz exists. Where do you see that? I just see here that the current link points to moc-qt3 and thus the man page points to moc-qt3.1.gz. Please check with: $ ls -l /etc/alternatives/moc.1.gz regards, guillem I am sorry, I must have misunderstood something. Changing back and forth between qt3 and qt4 works fine, so this bug can be deleted. Helge Hafting -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
