[Bug 1176686] Re: qtchooser does not properly work with multiarch

[Timo Jyrinki]

Hi. Thanks for the good thoughts, they clarify things well. I think I'd
be fine with both qtchooser not handling qdbus and binary moving away
from multi-arch directory. Although the direct /usr/bin/qdbus symlink
would be problematic since the executable inside qdbus-qt5 package is
still called just 'qdbus' like the Qt4 version, and it should be allowed
to be used.

Crucially though, I'd like to have the same solution as Debian will
have, and I haven't yet had the time to bring the topic fully to them
(via #debian-qt-kde @ OFTC). If I remember correctly it was very briefly
thought about, mainly the first question was that why would anyone want
to install/use the 32-bit versions (but of course, lack of support in
qtchooser for that is still an omission). The related Debian git:s are
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-kde/qt/qtchooser.git;a=summary ,
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-kde/qt/qttools.git;a=summary
(qdbus-qt5) and http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-
kde/qt/qtbase.git;a=summary (configuration of bindir).
