Description Sam Jorna (wraeth) gentoo-dev

When quassel (client) is built with USE="X -qt5", the input widget's backlog/history seems prepend the input with a colour code, making text either repeated from history or entered after scrolling through history to be (in my case) black, and invalidating any "/" commands.

Steps to reproduce:
1. emerge net-irc/quassel[X,-qt5] (note that deps may be involved)
2. Connect to a network
3. Send a message
4. Press up and resend message

Expected Results:
Text to be entered verbatim

Actual Results:
Text is prefixed with a colour code, causing coloured text in channels without +c and invalidating any client/server commands (eg. /mode).

I suspect this is due to a dependency issue between the two USE flags.

Also, both the X and qt5 USE flags describe building the Qt5 GUI. It probably doesn't make sense to be able to install with these flags, so perhaps either use REQUIRED_USE or remove the qt5 flag to make it implicit.

Please paste the output of emerge --info =net-irc/quassel-0.12.4. qt5 use flag will be dropped in 0.13.0. So you could try with 9999 where the change is already applied.
