[PyKDE] unexpected extended selection behavior in QListView

| Hello all,

| The following code exhibits unexpected behavior using PyQt 3.12 and QT

|
| After running the code, the second and third items will be selected, and
| the current item is set to the second.

| When you hold down Shift and click the fourth item, -all- of the items
| are selected, as if the 1st item was actually the current item (which it
| isn't in this case).

| 3, and 4 would be selected according to the example above)

Behaves the same with me and I do not know a workaround OOTB (I have
more or less the same stuff installed as you, although I recompiled PyQt
against Qt 3.3.2). I think this might be a bug in Qt itself (I cannot
imagine how PyQt might interfere there, but then again I am not a
connaisseur of its secrets and internals), although I would not say that
aloud until I saw a C++ program show the same behaviour.

greetings

BTW: good stuff in your weblog, keep up the great work! I hope I can 
have a closer look at your autoconnector code in the next weeks. I'll 
definitely put a link to it into the PyQt wiki, if you don't mind
