We know what to do because extras testing is extras testing and if you have problems with it, then make bug report and reflash. Simple as that.
Simple as hell.

I've recently seen this service message in many applications's testing pages in Extras Testing:

P.S.: sorry if I'm talking nonsense
The Qt4.6 libraries in extras-devel and now -testing are optified, i.e. they reside in the /opt directory. The final Qt4.6 libraries will not be in /opt, so this is more about preventing a lot of people having Qt4.6 libraries in two places.
Also the devel libraries are named 'wrong' to avoid the name collusion with the current Qt4.5 libraries.
On top of that the people working with Qt objected to the idea that their work in progress would be promoted to extras. They want to make it good and final and then get it out properly.
As for firmware upgrade, no problems there. Even if you have the devel libraries on device, the upgrade will go through fine. You just end up with two copies of the libraries, then it is time to remove the devel versions (once the packages that depend on them are changed to depend on the final Qt version).
I hope that was somewhat clear

Same issue here, can't send my app to autobuilder due do broken dep it seem. Was building fine two days ago
