Thank you Michele,

  I never knew there could be such a drastic difference in build time. I too
would use a clean chroot build environment and start with the dependencies
needed for qt3, tqtinterface, arts, dbus-tqt, dbus-1-tqt, qca-tls, etc...
through koffice. I guess the Arch a deb build systems are just that different.

  Question, distros like openSUSE are dropping python2 (completely). What will
happen to packages like python-tqt and any others with a python2 dependency? I
guess the only issue would be if a non-backwards compatible python feature was
being used. I don't write in python so I don't have a feel for if it will even
be a problem. Does TDE build against py3 only?
