This is the type of message that generates flames. Yes, you did
say the above. In a private message to me. Which was *not* cc'ed
to the list. Consequently, all anyone saw on the list was a very
vague "qt isn't found" complaint.

Also, "if your not gonna help then shut up" is an inappropriate
response when the person *is* trying to help by requesting more
specific information.
