Eike: I want to happily report that I pulled all the latest commits to the 4.6-stable branch and recompiled both, Qt and Qt-Creator under Snow Leopard (with -cocoa). It looks like you guys took care of the mouse click glitches and probably a lot more: everything appears to work as we expect it to.
I also have everything recompiled under RedHat (RHEL5) and it works flawlessly, at least within the limits of my ignorance, namely, as long as you don't reach my incompetence level...:-) I wouldn't mind trying it under Solaris as well, except that compiling Qt in one of those servers takes like 16 hours...and besides, I can't afford messing up one of those systems. Thank you to all of you for the great work you do. Victor PS: A semi-dumb question: What Qt branch should we compile that still allows us to build Qt-Creator while getting the latest Qt goodies as well? I have settled for the 4.6-stable branch in this case (in has worked in all platforms I have tried it), but maybe another branch seems more appropriate? Do you have a description of the currently available git branches?
