</div>I'm aware of the patch needed for TDE >=3.5.12, but my current interest is<br>
3.5.12.<br>
After that when the patch is needed for future versions then I will look at<br>
applying the patch to the qt3 package.<br>

</div>As I said earlier in this thread I have of course already rebuilt the qt3<br>
package on my box and started working on the TDE packages (thanks to work<br>
done by Tim for Mandriva it's far easier for me now).<br></blockquote><div>So we can now work on next step ?<br>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.<br>

The point is with the overwhelmingly negative attitude directed towards me<br>
even 'thinking' about TDE in Mageia, I don't think my reaction is that<br>
surprising, or is it?<br></blockquote><div><br>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.<br>
They also explained :<br>-> why qt3 was still in mageia & why we did not package the -devel files.<br>We could have close this thread far earlier<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
At this point I don't think there is any chance that TDE ever goes into the<br>
Mageia repos, given the attitudes I have faced here.<br></blockquote><div>I don't see why.<br>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.<br>
Some of us indeed ask for a Qt4 TDE and not a Qt3 TDE..<br> </div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Also this is not really about my ideas as Xavier's post showed, there are<br>
others too that are affected by these arbitrary and unnecessary<br>
limitations (they are probably just less outspoken than I am).<br><div><div class="h5"></div></div></blockquote><div>We started a new distribution and we made choices, one of them was to not have Qt3 apps.</div>It's not like we were providing Qt3 & others apps & 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.<br>
