Hi,
I do not use KDE. I use only qdbusviewer and some libraries linked to other
applications - for example teamviewer requires qt.

I seem to have been using the qt4 version with stretch. Two days ago I
upgraded to buster and today I found out that this is not working.

Expected is that it set up itself during installation and works seamlessly.
I also deliberately avoid using software that causes problems, because I
want to do my work and not debug or fix something.

I do not know why it does not setup automatically. I uninstalled everything
old and installed from scratch.

To me it is a sign that KDE is still a BS, because of the philosophy behind.

Never mind - as mentioned I had a copy of Qt5 for other project. I do not
need any KDE - just the qdbusviewer and Qt5 libraries.

When things start working seamlessly like it was at the end of KDE3 - just
let me know. I'll give it a try.
