I have yet to start a build thread or call for help, that should appear early november when the first alphas get past the initial build problems, this is an for information notice only at this stage.

I shall be using Wary as I want to use T2.

regards to all

Entered on BarryK's Wary 5.2 thread.
---------------------------------------------------
I was about to use 5141 to build the first alpha for my qt4 desktop to play with as I have decided that in the end to use the T2 stream rather than one of the other sources. Maybe I need to consider awaiting Wary 52 for the real alpha's

I will await your new W52 pets with baited breath. Will they be available at the usual place or a new diretory and any idea when?

I am also creating in parallel a basic server (no user stuff) so I can also trial frontend / backend applications, of which qt4 has plenty.

As for backward compatibility...

I uninstalled QComicbook 0.7.2, and reinstalled the previous version I had (0.3.4, qcomicbook-v0.3.4-i486.pet), with Qt 4.5.3 still installed. Here's the error the 0.3.4 package throws with Qt 4.5.3 installed (as I mentioned in my first post in this thread):

Code: Select all

qcomicbook: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Could that be solved with a symlink? (Just curious.)

I don't suppose there are any Qt 4.5 dev packages around that'll work on Puppy 4.3.1, are there?

libqt-mt.so.3 was usually found in the smaller 3MB QT3 package, http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... -3.3.8.pet also I think it needed a system from /usr/lib/qt-3.3.8/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 to /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3

I was recently frustrated with video players in my fanless Intel NM10-based netbook, with only VLC being able to play videos full-screen.

Then I remembered that VLC is based on QT (and Opera is, too), and that sometime ago, Barry has toyed with the idea of a QT-based Puppy.

Which brought me here after some search.

I see that our senior devs have been contributing here, and I hope that you still want a QT-centric pup.
