You're correct, libqt-dev and libqt3-dev cannot coexist. If you really need both, try setting up a chroot using debootstrap. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tips.en.html#s-chroot Or, just port the software to Qt3. In most cases, it's trivial to do. -- Don't worry, it's *in*-flammable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
