This is somewhat offtopic, but I was wondering if you can use a CVS frontend with a .16 backend. I am thinking about compiling the frontend on my iBook but want to see if I need to update my backend first.

You shouldn't do that, fix the PATH problem instead (see below). Making symlinks like that will really trip you up if you upgrade to a new version of Qt. > (tcsh: Bad : modifier in $ (/).) This is the problem -- you're using tcsh instead of bash as your shell. I'm guessing you probably upgraded from an older version of OS X, instead of starting with a fresh Panther install. As the howto says: "If you don't start from scratch, some of the instructions may not be correct for your setup." You've hit one of those places. =/ The tcsh version needs to be put into .tcshrc instead of .bash_profile, and it should look like this: setenv SRCDIR $HOME/src setenv QTDIR $SRCDIR/qt-mac-free-3.3.3 setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib:$QTDIR/lib setenv PATH ${PATH}:/usr/local/bin:$QTDIR/bin Use "source ~/.tcshrc" to load that into your environment, instead of ". ~/.bash_profile". The rest of the howto should work the same. > If I'm being a pain just ignore me... Not at all. Being a pain would be making the same mistakes over and over, and not listening to solutions. Making mistakes, learning from them, and going on to make new mistakes is just a normal and healthy part of life. (If I go by the number of mistakes I make, I'm extremely successful at life.) - Jeremiah
