When did this happen? Can you give me some specifics on what is no
longer backward compatible? We've been paying $4000 a seat for licenses
and they have yet to break backward compatibility. Whenever we get a
new release they tell us to replace the old one. If they're going to
break things we're going to stop giving them money ;-) So far none of
my Qt apps have broken.

Apparently the qt 3.3.3 rpms from CCRMA don't
replace qt.sh and qt.csh
in /etc/profile.d. I hand edited the scripts and replaced the default
3.1 with 3.3.3. I also had to remove qt3.1 from /etc/ld.so.conf and run
ldconfig.
Well, you can do that, but that will mess up all qt applications that
were not linked against qt3.3 (that is, all qt apps that were originally
compiled for qt3.1). Probably not what you want. Both libraries are
_not_ compatible and that is why qt33 does not replace qt3.1, it is
designed to be installed together with it.
