Hi,

Last realease of QT3 is _not_ 6 years old but about 3 years old ...

As always, please don't drop too fast the packages that you find 
useless. There are still some users like me who may use QT3.

I still use some "not so common" applications (eg tools for electronic) 
which needs QT3 and it is always much more convenient to simply do a 
"urpmi libqt3-devel" than downloading and compiling qt3 ... especially 
if libqt3 is already included in Mageia !

Thanks,
Xavier
