</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; &gt; Like I said before, KDE3.5 coexisted very well with KDE4 since 2009.1
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; &gt; on Mandriva and Trinity is even more so being developed with
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; &gt; coexistence in mind, so there shouldn't be any unsolvable issues.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Maybe it did coexist well at a significant cost on the packaging side?
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; (time, packaging compromises) and maybe the situation isn't exactly
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; the same as then?
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; &gt; This is exactly what I would call a reasonable factual argumentation.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; But an argument is not going to make anyone progress one way or the
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; other here obviously. If there are fears, then provide facts to
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; counter them (no argument, but facts).
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; You propose to add TDE in the repository. After this discussion, the
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; next step is you to first package TDE, build and test and
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; see/demonstrate how it goes, regarding at least these 5 points
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; (summarized from above) before an integration is considered:
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;  1. no conflict on files
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;  2. install in %_prefix (not in /opt)
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;  3. no duplicate software name (do not confuse user to decide between
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; tde-k3b and k3b for instance - or find a realistic workaround use
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; case).
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;  4. at this point, no apps outside of the TDE project should require TDE
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;  5. committed maintainers
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Romain
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; also promising to maintain qt3 as long as it's needed and here, the same
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; thing, not conflicting with qt4 in any way
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> How could a packager propose to maintain qt3 when it's been dead
</I>&gt;<i> upstream for years? so no upstream support/patches/whatever...
</I>
yes, it would be a huge amount of work; and that's exactly the reason i 
proposed to OP to just wait until it's qt4.
