My Components' DB (side project)

MCDB is a program that I've developed in the last month and an half, it has born due to the fact that I needed some sort of database where I could have stored all of my electronic components in order to easily keep trace of what I had available in stock. Another thing that led me to develop this program has been the need to find my components quickly, in fact my component boxes are very messy and in order to find if something was available or not I had to spend a lot of time.

The program is written in C++, for the user interface I've used the Qt graphics library.
The entire project is Open Source, cross platform and distributed for free, you can look at the source code here.
At the moment the supported operating systems are Windows (all versions) 32/64 bit, Linux (all versions *) 32/64 bit and Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
If you're interested you can visit the program's page on SourceForge by clicking here, or you can directly download the program by clicking on the link below.

* Only Wheezy-backports or newer distributions are supported on Debian.

    Looks interesting - I have been using PartKeepr but this looks more manageable but fails to run on my Mac (OX 10.11). Any ideas?

    Application Specific Information:
    dyld: launch, loading dependent libraries

    Dyld Error Message:
    Library not loaded: /Users/jcronje/Qt/5.3/clang_64/lib/QtWidgets.framework/Versions/5/QtWidgets
    Referenced from: /Applications/mcdb.app/Contents/MacOS/mcdb
    Reason: image not found

    Hello - What about the ability to have a bar-code in the database as one of the area's. I am currently listing all of my electronic components and I want to have an ability to add a bar-code. I have purchased a label printer which will add bar-codes and
    I'm putting these on each drawer where my components are stored. I am using the RS Component codes for re-order.
