This is a known problem caused by an incompatibility between the
kdelibs and qt version in testing.  It can be fixed by either
downgrading qt or upgrading kdelibs.

So this is how I solved the problem. I'm using mainly Sarge but do some
pinning with Sid.

What I did was:
- Comment out all lines in the sources.list file that point to the official
  Debian repositories
- Added this line (repository from June 30)
  deb http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2004/06/30/debian testing main
- Update the package list:
  apt-get update
- Force the downgrade:
  apt-get -u install libqt3-compat-headers/testing \
libqt3-headers/testing libqt3-mt-dev/testing libqt3c102-mt/testing \
qt3-dev-tools/testing

Hope this helps some of you

I have the same problem. How can I downgrade to the last version of Qt? Is
this possible with apt-get or can you even point me to a list of deb
packages?

Thanks, michael

There was the same problem in sid a while ago, due to the latest version of qt 
being binary incompatible for plugins and styles. The quick fix is to 
downgrade qt to the version that was in sarge before the latest update, wait 
until kdelibs (or kdeartwork, if you use plastik) migrates to sarge in a few 
days and then upgrade everything at once.

This broke awhile back.  I forget what the hack was.  I upgraded to Sid rather 
than bother.

The archives remember for sure, but it had something to do with incompatible 
libs, and needing to manually recompile something (kdelibs probably) against 
what was actually there.

I'm seeing this problem too -- just started after I updated today.




KDE Styles broken in sarge

2004-07-09 Thread Ian Eure
I just updated my sarge desktop today, and I can only select the built-in QT 
styles now. (CDE, MS Windows 9x, Motif, Motif Plus, Platinum & SGI)

There were some QT updates when I updated this morning, but I didn't pay too 
much attention to what got replaced.

I've purged my system of old (non- c102) QT packages, and reinstalled 
kdelibs4. When I ldd the KDE styles (in /usr/lib/kde3/plugins/styles), I 
don't see any broken library dependencies.

Anyone else seeing this? Anyone know how to fix it?
