Users of Qt Assistant will generally want qt4-doc installed. -- Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

What do you think about lowering libqt4-dev''s recommendation of qt4-dev-tools to a suggestion? This would solve the problem, too. IMO qt4-dev-tools aren''t generally needed if you install libqt4-dev. /Armin

That''s the whole point of recommends.> What do you think about lowering libqt4-dev''s recommendation of > qt4-dev-tools to a suggestion? This would solve the problem, too.

You should forward to a e-mail address but from Photoshop or from the control folder within AutoCAD you can''t log from the application of the serial BIOS minitower, so that then from Flash and from the preferences menu inside Explorer 93 you should never boot a mailer to log on a modem. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Quiting the description: "This packages contains the header development files and development programs such as qmake used for building Qt4 applications." If I want development tools I''d install development tools. dev-tools recommending libqt4-dev makes sense, but not the way round.
Hi, When i install libqt4-dev, i expect to have the headers and dev. program/libs to *build* my application. I don''t need qt4-doc at this stage. => libqt4-dev must suggests qt4-dev-tools and qt4-doc. When i install qt4-dev-tools, i expect to have the whole Qt4 development environment including qt4-doc. => qt4-dev-tools must recommends qt4-doc. my 2cts. cheers, Fathi
