[maemo-developers] Free space, Qt and PR1.2

[From: Attila Csipa]

In the light of the latest PR1.1.1 and free space issues I was wondering about 
the soon to be PR1.2 and Qt update impact on it. Is there a plan/script in 
place how application developers or people with Qt applications installed 
should handle the upgrade ? Asking because it seems to me a simple version 
bump would not quite work due to the space required to install the upgrades 
(i.e. a new PR containing a new libqt4-core would work for people who do not 
have Qt apps, but for those who do, it would pull in all the other already 
installed libqt*, almost certainly ballooning the required free space into the 
non-available range). As for app developers, due to the existing setup, an 
automatic recompile spree is not perfect as there is plenty of chance for 
breakage if libqt4-maemo5 suddenly becomes libqt4.

Long story short, is there a PR1.2 migration plan for Qt devs/users, or is it 
taken care of so the problems outlined above do not apply ? :)

Regards,
Attila
