I guess the only thing that currently prevents that pretty much is the rumo=
urs=20
about KDE 3.1.x not working correctly with Qt 3.2. I've build Qt 3.2 from=20
scatch to test that and replaced qt-3.1.2 on a test machine with KDE 3.1.2=
=20
with it to see how it works out. I can't see any odd behaviors or anything=
=20
that wouldn't allow us to switch to Qt 3.2 generally, so the question is:=20
what are the "bugs" that Qt 3.2 would trigger in a KDE 3.1.x environment ?
