</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All QtGui users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-qt/qtgui-5.14.2"
</code>
<p>Note that the Qt suite is best kept in sync, so a world upgrade may be
advisable to keep your system in a good state.
