[vlc-devel] compilation against libqt4.3 broken

[Dominique Leuenberger]

Hi,

since recently GIT Master can no longer be compiled against libqt4.3.  
Was that an intentional decision or just 'an accident' ?

Qt 4.3 is still wide spread in distributions officially under support.  
(openSUSE 10.3 for example).

The build log ends with:
