Try this:

a) create a dir "/usr/lib/qt2", in which you place a softlink called
   "libqt.so", which is linked to "/usr/lib/libqt.so.2", so:

   mkdir /usr/lib/qt2
   ln -s /usr/lib/libqt.so.2 /usr/lib/qt2/libqt.so

b) go to the licq source dir and do a

   ./configure --enable-socks5

c) go into the plugin dir and do a

   ./configure --with-qt-includes=/usr/include/qt2 --with-qt-libraries=/usr/lib/qt2 
--with-qt-moc=/usr/bin/moc2

   (all on one line, in case your mail soft truncates this)

d) create a file called "/etc/libsocks5.conf", containing the line:

   socks5         -   -   -   -   my.socks.server

   in which my.socks.server is replaced by your socks server.

You can safely ignore the "--enable-socks5" flag and part d) if you don't need
socks support.

This is the way a friend of mine set it up on my box when he helped me with the
socks-stuff (I didn't realise you actually needed the /etc/libsocks5.conf file
since you fill in the socks server in licq setup anyway). It runs nice and
stable here, and as soon as I find some time between two exams I'll recompile
with the latest libqt-version, so I can get that word-wrap back.
