Bug#296661: Still broken in kde 3.4.1 / qt 3.3.4



Hello,

I believe this is still broken and affects more than just kfiresaver.

The problem is, qt tries to use dlopen to open libXmu.so, but does not
try to open libXmu.so.* -- this will fail unless you have libxmu-dev
installed, since that is where libXmu.so lives.

Three obvious fixes are:

(1) Make qt smarter about looking for libXmu.so
(2) Make libxmu6 provide libXmu.so
(3) Make libqt3-mt depend on libxmu-dev

However, 2 and 3 seem like they are probably againts debian
policy. Not sure how feasible 1 is -- or if it is even a good idea...

I think qt also has a similar problem with libGL.so. 

My system is a bit out of date and bleeding edge at the same time, but
according to the qt changelogs, this has not be addressed. I am
running:

kde 3.4.1-1
libqt3c102 3.3.4-3
x.org 6.9.0.dfsg.1-0pre1+SVN from the x strike force svn repository
