For users
=========
1. **Qt5 support!!**.
2. Gtk2: Workaround bug in glib >= 2.36.1 (`g_spawn_command_line_sync()`)

    [Debian-Bug](http://bugs.debian.org/707946)

3. Gtk2: Remove KDE3 support from Gtk2.
4. Qt4: Disable transparent background from XEmbed window (e.g. in kpartplugins).
   Changing the depth of the window (which require recreating the window)
   breaks the XEmbed protocol.

   (e.g. choqok) that use this size hint.
