Default Updating Qt

Hi!

I have Slackware 9.1 and I am trying to update Qt-3.2.1 to 3.2.3.

Updating works without errors, but with Qt-3.2.3 installed the KDE konsole
is complaining about missing fonts.

I've tried to re-install the fonts from the Slackware CDs, but they are
still not found.

How can I solve this???

Default Re: Updating Qt

kcontrol > system administration > font installer

check to see if your fonts are listed there

no wait. it still does NOT work. that was my fault, i got a little
confused ;-)

but i found this in the ChangeLog.txt in slackware-current:

kde/qt-3.2.2-i486-2.tgz: Reverted to Qt-3.2.2. I noticed (and it was also
reported by Peter Christy) that upgrading to Qt-3.2.3 breaks konsole's font
handling in exactly the same way as happened over the summer. I never did
find out how that was fixed (and couldn't find it myself last time) or I'd
see if I could fix it again. In any case, Qt is probably OK, but until KDE
syncs up to it we should probably use version 3.2.2. Most of the bugfixes
in Qt-3.2.3 were for other platforms, and AFAIK Qt 3.2.2 was working and
finally fixed some keyboard problems people were having.


okay, i'll try it with qt-3.2.2 now.
