Does it say which version of qt it wants? Unfortunately, qt comes in two
flavors qt-2 and qt-3 that are incompatible. I don't know enough about
qt to say whether there is absolutely no way to have them coexist, but
in Fink they come as 2 versions of the qt package, so you can have only
one of them installed.

More unfortunately, many programs require explicitly either qt-2 or
qt-3, and some, and this may well be your case, don't even know that
qt-3 was released, so they require qt-2 but don't say so.

This looks like qt-3 was allowed, but

here it definitely looks for qt-2.

My idea would be to "fink install qt-2.3.1" and remove any package it
conflicts with. It should remove qt-3.0.3 all by itself. A cursory look
at the Depends line in unstable showed only the package bbkeysconf as
depending on qt-3. So here the new splitoff philosophy might actually
pay off, provided that the packages qt-2.3.1-1 and qt-shlibs-3.0.3-3
have no files in common (haven't checked this yet).

Then try again to compile your program. It might be more happy with qt-2.
