The reason in that case is: Last someone (not me) checked, KDE did not claim to support Qt versions released after the release of a given KDE SC version (in fact I seem to recall an incident where mixing a newer Qt maintenance release with an older plasma-desktop release actually went south). Or more generally put, because changing the entire version of a toolkit library has too great potential to go wrong only selective fix backporting is done. So, since Kubuntu 12.04 contains KDE SC 4.8 it uses Qt 4.8.1.
On that note, the report is definitely not from an actually supported Kubuntu 12.04 because it indicates Qt 4.8.2... handling this in the new downstream report though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1269199 Title: Qt library crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/konversation/+bug/1269199/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
