I compiled my own apt version 0.7.25.3+patch r1962 (and I had to add the
build-deps of r1959 to make it build, both from the mentioned bazaar repo),
and it fixes it:
# apt-cache policy libqt4-designer
libqt4-designer:
Installiert: 4:4.6.2-1
Kandidat: 4:4.6.2-1

On apt-get upgrade, no upgrade of qt to the already installed version is
happening anymore.
Thanks a lot!
