This is the correct approach (although Qt5 will most definitely *not* work for 
Rivendell, see below).  Here for example are the exports I use to find Qt4 on 
RHEL 5 (x86_64):

        export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/lib64/qt4/include
        export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib64/qt4/lib64
        export PATH=/usr/lib64/qt4/bin:$PATH

Each distro packages each version of Qt a little differently, so you may need 
to experiment to find the correct abracadabra for pclinuxos.

The various Qt major versions —i.e. Qt3 vs. Qt4 vs. Qt5 -- are *not* source 
compatible; moving a particular application to a later Qt version requires 
rewriting parts of the application.  Rivendell requires Qt3 and will not build 
successfully against Qt4 or Qt5 (although the various Qt versions can 
peacefully coexist together on the same system if the distro maintainer knows 
his business.  RHEL handles this well.  Certain others are not so graceful!).

Cheers!
