| Yes. I've actually been working on this recently (finally got to a point
where I could do so) and have taken care of qt-embedded however I
previously authorized the removal of qt-x11 only to find out that OPIE is
sitll dependent on pieces of it which qt-embedded does not have and that
it cannot get from qt3 (or is incompatable with).
So it's come down to the choice of qt-x11 going back in (IMO in a stripped
down fashion only providing the pieces needed...ie minimal library with
moc & uic) or just removing OPIE until it get's ported to qt-embedded-free
& qt3. The problem with the later is that who knows when that will
happen.
I'm not sure even how much the op-* packages are being used right now.
So: 1) Remove OPIE until it get's ported to qt-embedded-free (ie qte3)
or 2) Re-Add qt-x11
