Having qt3 installed, compiling soqt21-1.2.0-1 gives:

The configure script picked out Qt's install program when trying to
find the system-wide install program.  This probably happened because
you have QTDIR/bin too early in the path.  During installation, you
would run into serious problems because of this.

Fix your PATH variable so the system-wide install program is found
instead of the Qt installer and re-run configure.

configure: error: aborting
### execution of ./configure failed, exit code 1
Failed: compiling soqt21-1.2.0-1 failed

I have done

sudo mv /sw/bin/install /sw/bin/install-mvd

then soqt21 installed:

...

and I have restored the original setup with

sudo mv /sw/bin/install-mvd /sw/bin/install

Does it exist a better way to force soqt21 to use /usr/bin/install?

A cleaner method is to remove the package that provides /sw/bin/install and then reinstall it.


The error message you received looks inaccurate in this case, since /sw/bin/install is not Qt's installer, but from fileutils (at least on my system).
