I may have to switch to cmake. What I have right now for several apps is a short "configure" shell script with traditional behavior, that sets a few DEFINES and runs qmake. I may ponder a wrapper script for qmake (and other parts of Qt), so that one can easily switch between versions and builds. p.s. Qt4 Designer is installed under /usr/local/bin/designer, which comes before Qt3's /usr/X11R6/bin/designer in search order. For a few agonizing minutes I thought the Qt4 ports had overwritten the Qt3 port! :-) -- David Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd
