Hi, I'm trying to compile the qt-gui of licq, and i'm not able to do so. There are some problems with qt libs. I'm reading here a lot about trouble with qt, but i'm not sure that i really understand all.
First, my sources.list (the important parts): deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free deb ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/Linux/debian/ sid main non-free contrib deb-src ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/Linux/debian/ sid main non-free contrib deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US sid/non-US main contrib non-free deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US sid/non-US main contrib non-free deb ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main contrib non-free deb-src ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian sid main contrib non-free deb ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-non-US sid/non-US main contrib non-free deb-src ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-non-US sid/non-US main contrib non-free #deb ftp://download.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.1/Debian woody main I was reading here that KDE 3.1 is available with sid, so the last line should not be necessary. Ok, some packages are not available with sid, but that should not be the problem. The actual version of qt is 3, so i looked after libqt3 first. libqt3 is NOT available with sid, so i removed the comment marks from the kde.org line. There is libqt3 available in version 2:3.1.1+cvs.20021220-1. In the description i read: "It's necessary for applications that link against the libqt, e.g. all KDE3 applications." If it's necessary, why isn't it on debian.org? I find installed libqt3-headers in version 3:3.1.1-5. Seems to be necessary for compiling application, so it remains installed. BTW: It recommends libqt3-mt-dev, and it replaces sames package. Seems senseless to me. libqt3-i18n is the same version, remains installed, dito libqt3c102-mt. Usually i would install libqt3-dev, but it is replaces by libqt3-headers. So everything should be fine. I run ./configure --with-kde for the licq-qt-gui: checking for QT libraries... yes, lib: -lqt-mt in /usr/lib checking for QT includes... configure: error: I can't find the QT header files. Install the QT development package, or if you have them installed, override this check with the --with-qt-includes argument, and I'll take your word for it. The QT development package is replaced by libqt3-headers, which installs its files in /usr/include/qt3/. Next try: # ./configure --with-kde --with-qt-includes=/usr/include/qt3/ from config.log: configure:16500: checking for QT libraries tried /usr/lib/qt3/lib/libqt-mt.so tried /usr/lib/qt3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 tried /usr/lib/qt3/lib/libqt.so tried /usr/lib/qt2/lib/libqt-mt.so tried /usr/lib/qt2/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 tried /usr/lib/qt2/lib/libqt.so tried /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so configure:16586: result: yes, lib: -lqt-mt in /usr/lib configure:16622: checking for QT includes configure:16701: result: /usr/include/qt3/ configure:16730: checking for QT >= 2.1 configure:16779: g++ -o conftest -O2 -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -Wall -I/usr/include/qt3/ -I/usr/X11R6/include -fP IC -DPIC -D_REENTRANT -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/lib conftest.cc -lqt-mt -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lXext >&5 In file included from configure:16756: /usr/include/qt3/qglobal.h:710:21: qconfig.h: No such file or directory /usr/include/qt3/qglobal.h:720:22: qmodules.h: No such file or directory configure:16782: $? = 1 configure: failed program was: #line 16754 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" #include <qglobal.h> #ifdef F77_DUMMY_MAIN # ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" # endif int F77_DUMMY_MAIN() { return 1; } #endif int main () { #if QT_VERSION < 210 choke me #endif ; return 0; } configure:16802: result: no configure:16808: error: Sorry, but you need QT version 2.1 or higher to compile the Qt gui plugin. It seems to me that g++ is not failing because of a wrong version but because of missing files qconfig.h and qmodules.h. While i read on http://www.debian.de/distrib/packages after searching for those files that they are contained in libqt3-headers, i can't find them in the output of dpkg -L libqt3-headers. Where have i to get the files from? TIA Chris -- Dazu pa�t auch der Trend weg von der Kommandozeile: Dem Computer *Kommandos* erteilen - nein, das geht nun wirklich nicht.
