Ok, LyX1.5.0svn has failed to compile with both Qt4.2.3 and Qt4.3.0
with the
same error message "qt 4 library not found !".
What am I doing wrong? Does something need to be altered for ppc macs?
I followed the install.macosx using the following ./configure command:
"./configure --prefix=/Applications/LyX.app --disable-concept-checks
--with-version-suffix=-1.5svn --with-qt4-dir=/sw/qt-4.2.3
--enable-optimization=-Os --without-x --with-included-gettext
--with-frontend=qt4 --disable-stdlib-debug".
During the ./autogen.sh the following pops up, although I wouldn't
think it
would cause ./configure to fail relating to qt4 library not found:
" Building macros...
.
/sw/share/aclocal/glib.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of
AM_PATH_GLIB
run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
or see
http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal";;.
Hopefully, I'm just doing something blatantly not wise and once it is
cleared up it will configure just fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! It would be nice to be able to
compile LyX from source.
Thanks,

Bob, I think a "make clean" will solve it. At least it did for me
after trying QT4.3 (except for one time that I managed to mess
everything up so badly I had to trash my LyX source folder and
reinstall from svn...)
In addition, after trying, I have found 4.3beta, 4.3 snapshot and 4.4
snapshot not to work. IIRC the beta gave the same problem that you
are reporting, whereas the snapshots simply won't compile. The latter
two I hope will be fixed by Trolltech (although I haven't had time to
file a bug report. Has anyone done that). The former could perhaps be
related to how LyX searches for the QT-installation (i.e. the search
criterion). But I don't know where in the set-up files this
identification is done. Does anyone have any ideas?
Anyway, if you are in urgent need of a 1.5-version of LyX, I compiled
the beta 2 and posted it at http://www.charmec.chalmers.se/temp/
LyX_15b2_PPC.zip
If it is not that urgent, I would suggest that you wait for Bennett's
posting of the official beta.
