Too late to check now unless I undo the undo.

ISTR someone saying more than once that keeping KDE3 and Plasma on the same system
is a problem. This might be evidence of its truth. IIRC, qt5ct is needed by KDE3
for YaST2 applet font size configuration.

For now this is moot. This was on a 15.1 test box using KDE3. I already purged
plasma* and libKF5* from it. It's one of the oldest and slowest of my 64 bit
boxes, with Intel video. I wanted to see how snappy Plasma might be on the oldster
with Leap. It still has Plasma without KDE3 on TW.
