I just finished running some nominal tests of kcmshell in Trinity in Current. Everything worked as expected (except kwrite, reported in a different thread). I used all of the different methods do open the keyboard shortcut dialog and they all worked. No crashes.

Ah, I see. Thank you. I'm using 3.2.12 OSE on 13.1. I don't like playing the bleeding edge game. Once I get my production system running to taste I tend to leave things alone. Thus, I don't keep pace with VirtualBox releases.
In my Trinity build environments for Slackware I don't install the Qt4 and KDE4 packages to avoid potential conflicts during the builds. I have a Qt4/KDE4 installed in virtual machines where I want to test Trinity but that is all run-time. Regardless, that VirtualBox can be built without Qt4 is good to know.
