[gentoo-user] KDE4 has holes since updating Qt

[gentoo-user] KDE4 has holes since updating Qt

[Paul Hartman]

Hi,

I updated Qt earlier today, and rebuilt kdelibs, PyQt4, qt-opengl, and
all of my qt-related themes, but apparently I've missed something
because there are still "holes": outlines of buttons or windows with
no content. The most important of which is the Kicker menu. I can
change it to "classic" mode and use it, but when I set it to kicker
mode it's just an outline. This happened to me a long time ago and I
can't remember what I had to rebuild to fix it. I'm sure I am just
missing something easy.

Also, is there a command that can scan my system and tell me which
programs need to be rebuild after a Qt update? I seem to go through
this every time. :)

Thanks,
Paul

Perhaps

qlist -I -C <atom>

or
equery list | grep <atom>

just guessing....

hth,

there is a big, fat bug in qt-4.5.1. AFAIK it is fixed in their svn and in 
kde's qt-copy version. You might want to try this versions from the qting-edge 
overlay.

Okay, I'll check for it. Maybe I didn't do anything wrong after all.
:) Thanks for the info!

I can't seem to find how to install/enable the qt-copy patches. I use
kde-testing and qting-edge overlays. Am I missing something obvious?

To answer my own question: yes. :) I read the documention in
qting-edge overlay and now it makes sense. I probably should have used
the qt-kde-live set all along, I've been using the generic Qt
packages.

Thanks
