Description Patrizio Bassi 2007-06-09 13:03:56 UTC

amd64 has no 32bit qt4 version.

this prevent software like skype (and maybe opera in future) to works with shared version.

is possibile to have such package?

emul-linux-x86-qtlibs-20071114 has both qt:3 and qt:4.  it's package.masked so use it at your own risk.

Comment 3 Patrizio Bassi 2007-11-14 18:35:16 UTC

any ETa for unmasking the whole 20071114 system?

When it's ready...

Comment 5 Patrizio Bassi 2007-11-14 19:28:56 UTC

as usual :=)

sorry, stupid question, but sometimes there is a roadmap behind it

Why has this been closed?  There's still no support for 32bit Qt4 on amd64.

Enabling it in app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs-20080316 is quite trivial (see bug #200165, comment 3) and works great with Skype.  I've been using this for months now.

Comment 7 jlh 2009-12-27 11:26:36 UTC

Woohoo, this has finally been fixed.  app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs includes the Qt4 libs starting with version 20091226.  Currently this version is still masked, but it works fine with skype for me.

Thanks to all who made that happen.
