I really think that this place isn't the right place for asking your question. The difficulty involved in porting Qt based apps to Gtk can vary a lot. Personally, If I were you and I _really_ wanted to do it. I'd try to get libqt to work under the scratchbox environment. Then package it as statically linked to your application executables. Hang on, isn't that against Trolltechs UA? Anyhow. You're part of a business that has chosen to specialise in writing apps for embedded devices (I'm guessing here). You chose Qt as your platform, which was shipped with the zaurus. Now, tell me if I'm wrong. I'm guessing you plan on trying to sell applications to users of the N770 when it gets shipped. Cool, nothing wrong with that. It isn't however a good idea, in my opinion, to write apps that: a) Will look crap on stock devices. (Unless Qt can be hildonised) b) Do not look like other apps on the device. c) Don't interface with the core platform. So, personally. Even though the wording by koen may have sounded hard. Unless you plan on helping/starting/doing some Qt modifications to make it interface, at least a little, with hildon/libosso. You should really get your development team to read some docs at 'http://www.gtk.org/'. It took me less than a week to get good enough to write apps in Gtk + Hildon + libosso.
