Thanks for letting me know about this. I warn you though, I ran this scenario
on my RH7.3 system, and it made a mess of dependencies. I ran this command,
and recommend for you to do so as well using the arch param to limit matches.

   # ./grab-devel --test --rpmfind libqt3 --arch i586
 or 
   # ./grab-devel --test --rpmfind libqt3 --arch i?86

This is fixed in the devel version (0.2.33pre1). To get the devel version do:

   # grab --getdevel
   # ./grab-devel -V

You will see this in the mainstream build on the next release.

Good luck,

Greg
