Thank you. Maybe this isn't the right place to ask, but do you know of an
openSUSE 11.2 repository that has the Qt libs < version 4.0? That was my
holdup in regard to installing from source. (I already inquired on the
openSUSE forums to no avail. And searching the usual
sources<http://software.opensuse.org/search>turned up nothing less
than version 4 -- unless I searched incorrectly.)
