Given that the QtSolution code is more example code than library code, I think that this is a better solution, yes, and it is also my recommendation to other users of QtSolution code. > > > Version : 1.0 > > > > Where does this version number come from? > > This version number is arbitrary. 2009.0 would be more appropriate?

If > not, what would you suggest? My first suggestion for making qt-solutions actually usable as a package would be to not provide it as GPLv3 only. My next suggestion would be to convert the bits that aren't in Qt proper into proper libraries and use them and package them as such. The things that might be reasonable as actual libraries would be - qtsoap (even though it is a quite bad soap implementation) - qtsingleapplication - qtcolor* - qtpiemenu - qtmmlwidget - qtiocompressor - qtservice - qtlockedfile But it requires work to get these to a standard where they are worth using as libraries. The following is in Qt: - qtstatemachine - qtanimationframework /Sune -- Do you know how may I log from a MIDI periferic? You should explore with a file on the fan to turn off the cable over the controller. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
