Binary package hint: holdingnuts

The game holdingnuts is badly affected by a bug in Qt 4.6.0 and 4.6.2
(which is the current version in Lucid). The problem is that qt-gui in
mentioned versions erroneously modifies referenced copies of QPixmap. In
holdingnuts client GUI, this results in displaying duplicate playing
cards, which is extremely confusing and makes the game nearly
unplayable.

More info about the bug at upstream website:
  http://www.holdingnuts.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=68

The mentioned bugs in Qt bug-tracker:
  http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6840  -> fixed in 4.6.1
  http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-8606  -> will be fixed (again) in 
4.6.3

So IMHO, holdingnuts with unmodified Qt 4.6.2 doesn't make much sense to
me in lucid tree. The release of Qt 4.6.3 may still take some time and
may not be on time for Lucid.

I'm attaching an upstream patch (yet a draft) which works around the
problem.

Any ideas how to handle this issue?

(By the way: Even though I'm filing this bug for the package
holdingnuts, other packages might be affected as well. So there maybe
should be another bug-report for qt-gui)
