Well, after hours and hours and hours of compiling it seems I've
come to the
same result as Bennett. When compiling LyX1.5.0svn I get an error

Is it after './autogen.sh' or after './configure'?
In any case, I guess there should be some log file in the trunk
directory. Could you please send that log(s) to the devel list?
Hopefully someone will solve the problem.
Thanks a lot for your effort,
Abdel.
This message was after ./configure.
Just for shits and giggles I'm compiling Qt4.3.0 and Qt4.2.3 from
source
with the same commands to see if I can compile LyX1.5.0 with
either of
these. I know there is a precompiled Qt4.2.3 package for mac, but I
just
want to see if I can make it work myself from source. If I can't
compile
LyX1.5.0 with Qt4.2.3 then I'll assume that I am not properly
compiling Qt.
However, if I can compile LyX1.5.0 with Qt4.2.3 but not with
Qt4.3.0 then
I'll assume there is potentially an LyX issue. Any further
suggestions?
Bob
I've compiled QT4.2.3 and LyX1.5.0svn without problems a few days ago
on a (PPC) mac.
pdv
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";
<http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal%22>
;.
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 Lounsbury
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.
/Anders
I recompiled both Qt4.3.0snapshot and Qt4.2.3 and the only difference was
rather than using ‘sudo make install’ I just entered ‘make install’.
Now I
have LyX1.5.0beta2 compiled under Qt4.2.3, but I got the same error
message
when trying Qt4.3.0snapshot ‘qt 4 library not found’. A bug report
would be
great, I really want to see if Qt4.3 is faster. Thanks for the info.
Bob
I guess the problem is that we need to figure out whether it is a QT or
an LyX-issue...
Bob's problem seems like a problem in LyX autotools scripts rather than Qt.
It is interesting that your compilation works? Do you have more info on
your configuration? My fails on 10.4.9 (G4). with gcc 4.0.1, automake
1.10 and gettext 0.14.5.
But I will try again to make sure I didn't do something stupid.
Guys, please send the error message and the configure logs to the devel
list. Hopefully, someone will solve the problem.
Abdel.
