I've just finished getting the latest qt3 from Cooker to compile with Xft2. I had to make some tweaks to the configure script to get it all to play nicely together.Could anybody throw me a bone and let me know what I need to do to get qt to compile with the new Xft?
Here's what you need to do, assuming you've already installed the Mandrake source RPM:
1) Copy the attached qt-3.1.0-fix-xft.patch.bz2 file to /usr/src/RPM/SOURCES
2) cd to /usr/src/RPM/SPECS and apply the attached qt3.spec.patch.bz2 file to your qt3.spec file:
# bzip2 -dc qt3.spec.patch.bz2 | patch -p0
3) Rebuild the packages from the new spec file:
# rpm -ba qt3.spec
4) Profit!!! Well, maybe not. The resulting packages work OK for me, your mileage may vary. I'm using the latest freetype-devel, libXft2-devel, and fontconfig-devel packages from Cooker.
