We can switch as soon as KDE 4.5 is release. This is our usual way of
changing Qt versions. As long a not all distros ship KDE SC 4.4.x,
there is no possibility to switch. Keep in mind that Debian stable
doesn't without activating additional repositories...

We really shouldn't take the git users using a higher Qt version as a
measure, these are only a tiny fraction of all users we have.
