Earlier this morning, Trolltech release version 4.3.4 of their QT development solutions.

From trolltech.com:
Qt includes bug fixes made since the release of version 4.3.3 in December 2007. In addition to professional support, Trolltech commercial license holders receive regular releases as part of their annual license. All improvements to Qt are also released to the Open Source Community through GPL editions of both frameworks.

Comparatively, this is a fairly small release but good to grab if you try to keep up with the bug fixes.

Changes 4.3.4

Qt 4.3.4 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.3.0 through Qt 4.3.3.

The Qt version 4.3 series is binary compatible with the 4.2.x, 4.1.x and
4.0.x series. Applications compiled for Qt 4.0, 4.1 or 4.2 will continue to
run with Qt 4.3.

General Improvements
——————–

- Legal

* This version adds the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 3
to all Qt Open Source editions. The GPL Exception version 1.2
applies to both versions of the GPL license.

Build System
————
* Ensure that Qt plugin paths are only added once to the LIBS variable.
* MinGW: Ensure that PRE_TARGETDEPS and POST_TARGETDEPS are properly
escaped in dependency lists, so they match the rules in the Makefiles.
