Now available at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/perlqt

Important change for this release :
------------------------------------------
running ./configure is now deprecated. The preferred way is to run :

perl Makefile.PL [same options as configure]

This will allow automatic builds from -MCPAN + various checks for environ=
ment=20
variables + eventually regenerating aclocal.m4 on systems with bleeding e=
dge=20
automake (feedback welcome).

-----------------------------------------

I've finally given up with the private malloc idea. Two much portability=20
troubles, and unreliable solution anyway (still segfaulting Xim on some Q=
t=20
versions).
I've found a not perfect but cleaner workaround that will cure the segfau=
lt=20
for KDE compiled with --disable--fast-malloc and--enable-fast-malloc

Vendors fool enough to ship an --enable-fast-malloc=3Dfull be burnt.

ChangeLog:
--------------
2002-12-11 GG. (v.3.004-RC2)
         - turnaround for segfaults with some KDE themes (KThemeStyles)
           =3D>will work witth kdelibs compiled with --disable-fast-mallo=
c and    =20
            --enable-fast-malloc, but not with --enable-fast-malloc=3Dful=
l
         - Qt::version()
         - updated documentation (marshallers, debugging, i18n)
         - switch to Makefile.PL for driving ./configure


Cheers,
