If you are using a *bsd system, you still need HAL, that's why v14.0.0 is compatible with HAL. 3) v14.0.0 is usually built on top of tqt3. 4) I usually build sip4-tqt, tqscintilla and python-tqt just before python-trinity. I build tqca-tls just after dbus-1-tqt. Hope this make things a little more clear :-) Cheers Michele
