Hi I run into an issue when building tqt and tde without opengl.
The build of tqtinterface fails with:
=== In file included from /var/tmp/portage/dev-qt/tqtinterface-9999/work/tqtinterface/qtinterface/interface_tqt3/tqgl.cpp:23:0: /usr/tqt3/include/ntqgl.h:83:21: fatal error: GL/glu.h: No such file or directory # include <GL/glu.h> ===
As you can see it because GL/glu.h is not present on the system (which should be ok for non-opengl build). I don't want to add yet another build time dependency only because of excess header which doesn't needed to produce any code...
AFAIK most of cpp files under the tqtinterface produce any useful code so they may be safely removed only slightly changing the cmake files...
What do you think about both the issue and future of the tqtinterface?
PS: As I can see tqtinterface is a just a legacy by now, so may be it's better to rid of it completely?

For openGL, it looks like a bug, so the best would be to log this into the bugszilla system so it does not get forgotten .
About tqtinterface, you raise a valid point. AFAIK, tqtinterace was introduced when TDE wanted to migrate to qt4 some time ago (even before I knew of TDE existance). The plan didn't really went anywhere since we lacked the manforce required for such huge task. On the other hand it made a lot of KDE3 applications no longer compatible with TDE and each update to qt3 needs to be duplicated (although automatically) to tqt3. IMHO, tqtinterface feels somehow unnecessary, unless there are other reasons I am not aware of (about which Tim or Slavek may know better). Removing it would reduced slightly the code base that requires maintenance and would simplify the steps required to integrate an old KDE3 application into TDE (probably some work would still be required, but a lot of the renaming is no longer needed).
I am interested in knowing Tim's and Slavek's opinion. If we are to cast a vote, I would probably be in favor of removing tqtinterface, unless (as said) there are other reasons for it to exists.
Cheers Michele

So, I'd like to hear Tim's opinion too...
