lex79stikonas: we removed that package from qt4-x11 in maverick for now (this mean also for beta backport), we are waiting for the new package18:45
* shadeslayer thinks we didnt update qtcreator18:45
lex79stikonas: do you have libqt4-assistant installed?18:45

brmassaguys, im suffering from a bug vastly reported in ubuntu forums, but i couldnt find a solution: XOrg and Plasma constantly grow... is there a fix?19:06
shadeslayerbrmassa: heh..19:10
shadeslayerbrmassa: use a ligher WM19:10
brmassashadeslayer: the problem is the kdm?19:11
shadeslayerbrmassa: nooo19:11
shadeslayerbrmassa: KDM == login manager19:11
shadeslayerbrmassa: wm == window manager,like kwin19:11
brmassashadeslayer: what im reporting is a bug. both Xorg and plasma-desktop processes continually grow... even if the computer is idle.. they are now consuming 300m together..19:12
brmassashadeslayer: also they are consuming 20% CPU EACH19:12
* shadeslayer checks19:13
shadeslayerbrmassa: only 200 MB here.. but then its on for only a few hours19:13
brmassashadeslayer: even that. in older versions (that used kde3.5), u could left it running for days.19:14
shadeslayerbrmassa: well.. i dont know what could be causing the exact leak :(19:15
brmassashadeslayer: yep... there are several topics in forums... but i could not find a definitive solution19:16
brmassashadeslayer: btw: plama-desktop, in these few minutes, is now 30mb bigger19:17
amichairbrmassa: I had the same problem for a long time, but as of 4.4.4 (iirc) plasma no longer leaks19:17
shadeslayer0_o19:17
amichairbrmassa: the ktorrent plasmoid leaks bad though, are you using it?19:17
brmassaamichair: im in 4.4.2, kubuntu 10.0419:18
amichairbrmassa: so upgrading might fix at least some of the problem19:18
brmassaamichair: nope. the only plasmoid are those installed by default: panel, clock, sys tray and folder view...19:19
amichairI still see xorg grow a bit, but nothing as bad as before19:19
brmassaamichair: 4.4.4 is on default repositories? i mean, officially supported?19:20
brmassaamichair: i can (and probably will) update, IF its the real cause of the leak...19:20
amichairit's in the kubuntu updates ppa19:20
amichairbrmassa: all I can help you with is my personal anecdote :-)19:21
brmassaamichair: thanks anyway19:21
amichairmy plasma would grow to 1G after a couple weeks of uptime. For months. It doesn't anymore, and an upgrade did that.19:21
