I converted the original qca package to TQt and renamed to tqca.

To anybody interested, the converted sources are here:

http://humanreadable.nfshost.com/trinity/patches/tqt-fixes/

The converted tqca sources build without failures. The final package looks reasonable. Others more qualified than me should validate that the final package is good. I don't know the relationship of the original qca and qca-tls or how the original qca-tls depended upon qca for building. That relationship will have to be validated too. I have no idea how to test either.

I compared the original qca-tls sources to a copy of tqca-tls stripped of the TQt layer. The two source sets are practically identical. Therefore I don't think anything has been done to the converted tqca-tls sources that eliminates the need for a converted qca package. (Francois mentioned he has a patch that does something like that.)

I don't know whether I wasted my time converting the package. If not, then pushing the converted sources to GIT would resolve bug report 817.
