Yes I meant that.
And I was referring to the class Amarok2ConfigDialog which inherits from
KConfigDialog which inherits from KPageDialog. Previously KPageDialog
inherited from KDialog but in KF5 now it inherits directly from QDialog and
skips KDialog. So the usage of functions(like setButtons which were part of
KDialog) which were used in Amarok2ConfigDialog now cause errors.

So for this I am porting from KDialog to QDialog completely.

I hope this clears up everything.
