Qting-edge overlay
Nokia currently provides multiple Qt versions at the same time. Hence we created qt overlay to make those versions available to our users. We put a great effort in maintaining many flavors of the Qt4 library. Currently we maintain and testing on almost daily basis the following packages:
Important:
Due to limited hardware resources we might be unable to test some of the above Qt versions. You may check the list of maintainers here. If you want to help us and test a specific version of Qt please let us know. |
You may seek online support on Gentoo Forums. See Section 6 for alternative methods to contact us.

Contributing
Bugs, bugs, bugs! If you want to help, consider going through the Qt bug list:
http://tiny.cc/qtbugs. Any comment that can help a bug get fixed is
always useful!
Those interested in writing ebuilds for Qt4 applications may find this tutorial
useful: Qt4-based Ebuild HowTo.
Active contributors usually gain access to the qt overlay to better help
us with ebuild maintainance and can, in time, become full-fledged developers :)
