Thanks :-)

Of course kde still uses qt3. But this script is only for distrowatch as I 
understood. Distrowatch reports qt4 as qt and Lunar's qt looks always 
outdated when someone does not know this difference.
When I wrote this e-mail I thought about something alias like only for 
distrowatch to report correct modules. I'm against changing something in 
moonbase because of distrowatch (maybe except vnc).

http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=lunar
Refreshing with all packets I see:
Packet:			moonbase:
qt-x11 (4.2.3)  		3.3.8

lvu info qt4 = 4.2.3
There is no reason to hide we are up to date with qt in distrowatch.
If aliases inside distrowatch script are not available drop me a source so 
will try to find other solution.

Ugh. Man, god mode in real life is permanently disabled for zbiggy :-(. Maybe 
someone better will do this for me. I added myver= to details so hide this 
crazy version number from public view.

Oops. Seamonkey is listed in distrowatch too. Please bring it back. I 
suspected it was double listed. In this case I will write to distrowatch to 
remove mozilla from global list - enough argument for a browser dropped a 
year ago.

have a nice day,
