[SOLVED] qt-git (4.8)

appmenu-qt needs qt-4.8; but the qt-git in aur compiles only qt-4.7.4. moreover qt-4.8 + calligra has better font rendering in words, tables, etc. (as claimed at osnews' comment);

could we have qt-git (qt 4.8), please!?

Thanks Sevenseven, thanks a lot; but unfortunately qt-git does not bring jre support to rekonq/kwebkit-git and calligra-git does not build with it... So I'd better wait till qt-4.8.0 is released with arch.

Calligra guys said that the text rendering is good with qt-4.8 and qtwebkit based browsers always claims that qt is responsible for no jre support; but it seems they are avoiding the issue...

and qt-appmenu does not work either; perhaps whole kde-git has to be build to take advantage of that... bah!
