Do many apps really still depend on qt3? I though even Debian managed to go qt3 free in the latest release...
I guess many of them could be already removed, e.g.: * kovpn, NetworkManager (both the plasmoid and the applet) support OpenVPN. * qtcurve-qt3, it just a theme which doesn't require many resources to be built. Someone have a development version for Qt4/KDE4 * ksniffer, (and I bet everyone uses wireshark). * ktechlab Others have better alternatives: * kleansweep, bleachbit? (uses PyGTK) sweeper? (maybe miss some feature, just report the feature request to the kde bug tracker) * pwmanager, kwallet? I can't do a detailed list ATM, but I'd like to hear some opinion from the people that use those programs first. I'm in favor or removing gtk1/qt3, but building qt3 takes sooo much time. I really want to drop it when nobody really needs it. -- Andrea Arch Linux Developer
