Description George Mavrikas 2005-11-13 00:03:12 UTC 
kdelibs3-3.4.3-2 depends on qt >= 3.3.5 and apt installs qt3-3.3.5.-17. When this happens, KDE cannot load any external styles and uses only the compiled-in ones. 
This bug has been confirmed on and amd64 and a athlon XP.
This makes KDE pretty ugly :(

you're using supplementary, right?

you'll have to update to the recompiled kdelibs3, kdebase3-SuSE, kdebase3, kdeartwork3.

Im having the same problems here when upgrading to the qt 3.3.5 package of the kde repository reachable via apt/smart (on ftp.gwdg.de).

Installed version of 
qt3: 3.3.5-17 from RPMS.kde (which is essentially the mentioned supplementary)
kdelibs3 etc.: 3.4.3-2 from kde or kde3-stable... was unsure about that (kde3-stable is kde/stable/3.4.3 on suse ftp) so I checked. There seem to be three versions around. all version 3.4.3-2

compiled on smetana.suse.de is the one I currently have installed. on ftp there are build on c001n13.suse.de (kde3 stable) and gray.suse.de (kde supplementary). I assume the correct one to be installed is the one from the supplementary. As the others just need qt >= some version, automatic upgrade wont upgrade them if qt version changes as 3.3.5 also fits like >= 3.3.4. 

A recommended solution is to provide updated packages with a new version number, e.g. 3.4.3-3 for the supplementary packages that use qt 3.3.5 so automatic updates via like apt can catch them.

don't mess with our prios

adrian: can we bump release number when plus is synced out?
Comment 6 Adrian Schröter 2006-05-02 08:45:53 UTC 
Dirk, no, because packages are already build at that point of time.

I do not understand what it made incompatible, as long qt and kdelibs version numbers are the same as at compile time, this problem should not appear.

And this should be always the case with out current sync tools.

You somehow managed to break your installation, but as it works in general
