-IMPORTANT: Crashes in Krusader caused by Qt 3.3.5
-*************************************************
-We've been getting a lot of emails and bug reports regarding random
-crashes in Krusader, especially during some file operations (copy/move
-etc.). These crashes are related to Qt 3.3.5 and NOT Krusader. It seems
-that Qt 3.3.5 introduced a serious bug which is now causing random
-crashes in many KDE applications including Konqueror. You can google for
-it to find out more.
-
-As far as we know, debian and suse already posted new Qt binaries that
-fix the problem, and gentoo has masked Qt 3.3.5 completely. As for now,
-you either need Qt 3.3.4 or a fixed Qt 3.3.5, depending on your
-distribution. For more information is available on our website at
