I somehow managed to configure, build and install qgis-0.8.0 WITHOUT Postgres. Hope this post will be useful for someone who'll be facing the same issues. These are the steps I followed:
1. Installed all qgis-0.8.0 dependencies as per the document. In particular installed 'qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.3' under the location '/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.2.3'. 2. Configured qgis using the the following command: ./configure --with-qtdir=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.2.3 --prefix=/usr/local/qgis (Note: I didn't mention about other libraries like gdal, geos etc... These are taken automatically as they are usually installed in the default location.) 3. After successful configuration, I issued the command 'make' (this will take some time) and then the command 'sudo make install' 4. 'qgis' execuatble can be foung at '/usr/local/qgis/bin'. 5. In command prompt go to the location '/usr/local/qgis' and issue the command './bin/qgis'. or In a file browser go to the location '/usr/local/qgis/bin' and then open (double click on) 'qgis' executable file. qgis application will be loaded for you. 6. That's all !!!. I'm not sure whether this is the correct way to install qgis but it worked for me. Someone please correct if I'm wrong. Hope you find this post useful. Will try with Postgres and let you asap. Regards, Ela On Fri, 2007-05-11 at 14:26 +0530, Elavazhagan.M wrote: > Hi, > > > > I am trying to build qgis.0.8.0 on Fedora.
