@reescf: we use a4 per default and the qt print dialog doesn't default to
letter... did you set a4 in /etc/papersize? Also: Sure this is an upstream bug,
but as in my filing on Launchpad, I'd say it doesn't matter. Those distros
incorporate lots of patches to their packages so this is not excuse. What's
more: The users don't care and they shouldn't have to. The patch doesn't fix
the underlying problem but it does fix 99% of the annoyance. And with distros
like Ubuntu and Arch, still behaving like douchebags in that matter, acceptance
for Linux on the desktop takes a hit for affected users...

@Alex: I'll update it as soon as I've got some time for it... I also filed a
bug on Launchpad against qt4-x11 and hopefully they incorporate the patch in
their next release... It's gonna be an LTS release after all...
