Qt uses the QImageIO Plugins for rendering images. Since KDE installs
such a plugin for the EPS format, every Qt application picks that plugin
as well. Unfortunately in KDE4 the EPS plugin used a class which is only
available in applications which use KApplication instead of
QApplication, so the plugin asserted and Lyx was terminated.

I've fixed that issue in trunk and the KDE4.0 branch (will be part of
4.0.1 release) now by using only Qt classes in the EPS plugin.

Ciao,
