Qt4 in testing breaks qt3

Pacman -Syu asked me:
:: Replace qt4 with testing/qt? [Y/n]
I answered yes.

This led to the following error when I tried to launch programs that needs libqt-mt.so.3(owned by qt3) from within a terminal window:
ktorrent: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tested with ktorrent, dolphin and k3b. (konsole worked fine)

Are you using any thrid party repos? Are your repos in the right testing,core,extra,community order? Do you use the same mirror for all of them?

I cannot reproduce this problem.

I used qt4 from community before this update. And I've rolled back that one.

pacman.conf:

[core]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/core

[extra]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/extra

#[unstable]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/unstable

[community]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/community

[compiz-fusion]
Server = http://arch.nesl247.org/compiz-fusion/i686 #I don't use anyting from this one

[testing]
Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/testing/os/i686

I'll try to reproduce it myself later

You have to put [testing] in front of all other repos.
Comment by Kristian Toftenes Askildsen (kristian) - Tuesday, 13 November 2007, 21:51 GMT
No, I don't intend to run testing. But I like to have some packages from testing availiable. Like just recently when the new ati-driver was released.

I don't know why pacman asks me to replace a current package with one from testing. But I see now that this "bug" is a result of my non-standard-way of running Arch (Me mixing packages from current and testing).

I think you can close this "bug". Sorry to waste your time.
