I will take a look to it when I have some free time.

I have resubmitted the application to the automatic builder tool and it passed successfully (as you can see here). Can anyone test whether the application works now. I have no device so cannot test it myself. Thanks.

Yes, it works, in sense you can see settings of plugin, directory of dictionaries. Works as well as it did before update.

But still, images cannot be seen in the articles, and X Terminal prints multiple lines "QFSFileEngine::open: No file name specified".

Thanks, and best wishes!

For some reason upgrading QStardict requires experimental Qt4.7...May be I don't understand something?

I have same problem - trying to install newly build version of QStarDict requires libqt4_experimental packages. I haven't updated my packages, after apt-get update I installed new version of QStarDict and it works OK.

I have installed it and it works, thanks!

The dependence on libqt4-experimental, is that an oversight? Does it mean that some packages of the new release got overwritten?

EDIT: I can answer the last question myself - nothing got overwritten since the experimental libraries are installed in different directories. A different question instead: when a new qstardict version will depend on the final version, will we have to manually remove the experimental libraries?

Thanks!! After updating new version today, it worked fine. This is one of my favorite apps.

Good to know that the application is working again.

About the dependency to libqt4-experimental-dev now...

The control file for the packaging the application looks like this:

Code:

Source: qstardict

XB-Maemo-Display-Name: QStarDict

Description: International dictionary written using Qt4

 QStarDict is a modern international dictionary written using Qt4.

 .

 It is a StarDict clone written with using Qt4. It can use StarDict DICT files as a word database for translation. QStarDict supports plugins.

As you can see, I have added libqt4-experimental-dev to Build-Depends.

My understanding was that this package should be installed only when downloading the source code, not when installing the application. I guess I was wrong. Anyway, I believe this is required only temporarily because qt-4.7 is still in beta and is not the default SDK. Eventually, this dependency will be removed in a future version of QStardict.

My understanding is that it shouldn't depend on a version of libqt different than the one that comes with PR1.3, am I right?

So shall we wait for a new package?

Thanks!!

As soon as the default Nokia SDK is qt-4.7, I will release a new package. For the moment, the default SDK is qt-4.6. According to this article, it should be updated in near future.

I think it's no big deal... However, if it really bothers too many people, I can try to release a new package without this dependency and see if it works as well.
