Hi Dale-

I didn't get this error specifically when I was compiling kde 4.0 with
qt 4.4.0 (I might have upgraded to qt 4.4 after I had already compiled
strigi), but I know that, right now, the changes in the qt 4.4 API
aren't supported by (at least) several of the KDE 4.0 packages - they
just won't compile with it. Also, many of the ebuilds that check *how*
qt is built before compiling do *not* yet support the way that qt 4.4
has been split out into several packages (do an eix -I qt- to see all
the packages that qt has been split to in addition to just
x11-libs/qt) - in short, I had to re-mask qt 4.4 and downgrade before
I could continue installing kde 4.0 - the qt 4.4 and kde 4.0 just
aren't quite ready to mix yet (and qt 4.4 isn't quite ready to mix w/
Gentoo yet, either - there'll have to be a fair amount of ebuild
changes to other packages to support it).

HTH-

James
