[Ugh!  Down-side-up postings make replies in context difficult!]

The problem with qtparted, AFAIK, is that it's qt3/kde3 based, and the 
project has only just been resurrected after being dead for awhile, with 
them still trying to unbreak it.  (That was the the comment on the last 
commit as of a day or two when I checked, anyway.  I never did see any 
info on whether they're simply resurrecting the qt3/kde3 version or are 
actually porting it to qt4/kde4, tho if they're working on fixing the 
brokenness, perhaps they are porting it.)

As I mentioned, KDE Partition Manager is a kde4 project, also built on the 
gnu parted foundations.
