Description Mikael Lammentausta 2009-04-27 07:21:34 UTC 
This is the first time I wanted to run qtdesigner on Gentoo. There was no package called 'qt-designer' but the app was in the KDE menu. Apparently it launches /usr/bin/designer which is a bit misleading. This is provided by qt-gui.

Perhaps a symlink to /usr/bin/qtdesigner would be possible?

Reproducible: Always

But it is not our fault. This is the way Qt upstream chooses to name packages and binaries :\

If you really think that tis this a bug, you should inform upstream about that
