Bug#335876: libqt0-ruby1.8: calls to Qt::Dialog's initialize do not return as expected

[Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>]

Package: libqt0-ruby1.8
Version: 4:3.4.2-2
Severity: important

Consider this simple example program:

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'Qt'

class ConfigDatabase < Qt::Dialog
  def initialize(*k)
    puts("init in CD")
    super(*k)
    puts("after Qt::Dialog's init")
  end
end

$app = Qt::Application.new(ARGV)
cd = ConfigDatabase.new


With the current libqt0-ruby1.8 the second puts is not executed,
and the rest of ConfigDatabase's initialize method is not executed
either.

This works with sarge's libqt0-ruby1.8 (3.3.2-1). It also renders
everything that rbuic creates (if not every Ruby/Qt program) unusable.
