+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; As as already said earlier, if you want to compile TDE, you can also
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; compile
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; qt3 with devel enable because you 'll need to *patch* qt3 to be able to
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; compile TDE &gt;=3.5.12 cf
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; <A HREF="http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Qt3">http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Qt3</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I'm aware of the patch needed for TDE &gt;=3.5.12, but my current interest is
+</I>&gt;<i> 3.5.12.
+</I>&gt;<i> After that when the patch is needed for future versions then I will look at
+</I>&gt;<i> applying the patch to the qt3 package.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; So i'll repeat myself once more :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; -&gt; enable qt3 with devel support on your box
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; -&gt; patch it (because i expect you want to fix some TDE bugs available
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; in 3.5.12
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &amp; you'll need to patch for TDE from svn &gt; 1214094
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; -&gt; compile, test TDE on your computer with a prefix in /usr (&amp;not
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; /opt)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; -&gt; if everything is ok, ask for a space online (i can help if it's
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; really
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; needed for that) to provide TDE in a contrib for more tests
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; -&gt; &amp; than if it's ok we can start thinking about including some part of
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; it
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> As I said earlier in this thread I have of course already rebuilt the qt3
+</I>&gt;<i> package on my box and started working on the TDE packages (thanks to work
+</I>&gt;<i> done by Tim for Mandriva it's far easier for me now).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>So we can now work on next step ?
+Assume you can build it without problem, that's it's including without
+problem in mageia, put it on an external repository for more test and after
+discuss again about it's inclusion in mandriva.
+
+
+&gt;<i> The point is with the overwhelmingly negative attitude directed towards me
+</I>&gt;<i> even 'thinking' about TDE in Mageia, I don't think my reaction is that
+</I>&gt;<i> surprising, or is it?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+I did not see any negative attitude directed towards you, most of people
+told you that for the moment it was a no-go in order to enable qt3-devel
+until you'll be able to prove that TDE can integrate nicely in Mageia,
+that's all.
+They also explained :
+-&gt; why qt3 was still in mageia &amp; why we did not package the -devel files.
+We could have close this thread far earlier
+
+
+&gt;<i> At this point I don't think there is any chance that TDE ever goes into the
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia repos, given the attitudes I have faced here.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>I don't see why.
+The only problem we faced is that we're not agree about packaging qt3-devel
+for the moment, that's all. We proposed you to packaged TDE , get it
+reviewed etc etc.
+Some of us indeed ask for a Qt4 TDE and not a Qt3 TDE..
+
+
+
+&gt;<i> Also this is not really about my ideas as Xavier's post showed, there are
+</I>&gt;<i> others too that are affected by these arbitrary and unnecessary
+</I>&gt;<i> limitations (they are probably just less outspoken than I am).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>We started a new distribution and we made choices, one of them was to not
+have Qt3 apps.
+It's not like we were providing Qt3 &amp; others apps &amp; suddently someone
+decides to drop all of them from the distribution... This could be seen as
+arbitrary and unnecessary limitations because suddently you can loose
+functionnality, here we started *without* thoses because we decided to start
+like this.
