If you want to use e.g. qmake from Qt 4, you need to either call it as ‘qmake -qt4’, or export QT_SELECT=4. This is how qtchooser works. If any of these methods does not work, then it is a bug. But I don’t see a mention of that in your bug report. -- Dmitry Shachnev OK. I did not know such a package was around. Since I assume many of us will be compiling for either or both, this solution (mutually exclusive packages) is not, in my mind, the best. I have requested from one dev so far that the QT_SELECT by done by his configure script. Another alternative could be a /etc/default/qtchooser. This could specify even more default properties, if desirable. Comment out the build alternative not desired #QT_SELECT=4 QT_SELECT=5 I guess a situation of name-your-poison. Can rephrase bug as wishlist. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
