Opened 2006-06-09: http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1076

And apparently it's the same issue as above.  I didn't know about this fix 
before.

I think you're going to have a whole lot more complaints that it doesn't look 
like an Opie app.  The last time I got it built, it was using the plain grey 
qt/embedded widgets.

Hrw already answered my question about that.  And that's about all I do with 
my collie: KO/PI, KA/PI, scummvm, and my wife plays maki, backgammon, and 
zsolitaire (with the dreaded sharp-compat-libs :) because I'm too stupid to 
get it to build w/OE)
