QT Libraries & Headers

inescapeableus · 04-30-2005, 06:06 PM

Hello I have just installed QT and I have everything installed properly yet I am missing the development files. I have searched hell and high water for the tarball and I have come across nothing. If you can let me know where to go to download it, that would great. Thanks.

did you search the qt homepage? but if you don't have the headers you don't have it installed correctly. (most likely, if your using fc3 from your profile, you dont have the devel package installed - the tarball won't help you much unless you know exaclty where to place the files (qt is a little different, you cant just throw the headers anywhere)).

This is for my Vector Linux box, and yes I did search the website thoroughly. I installed QT from source I am just missing the development package from what I can gather.

if you installed it from source, you have it all. what is the output of:

echo $QTDIR

well there you go then
if you compiled/installed Qt from source
your headers are in /usr/local/include
and the libs are in /usr/local/lib

perhaps it might work better if you describe what you were trying to do that wasn't working

What I am trying to do is install KDE 3.4 and I am in need of QT because the distro that I am using does not have them preinstalled.

did you install qt correctly(per the instructions)?

inescapeableus · 05-02-2005, 05:35 PM

As far as I know I did, everything according to the instructions.

you should be good to go then, as long as qt has thread support, QTDIR is defined to point to the root of the qt installation, and the libs have been cached ( entered into /etc/ld.so.conf and ldconfig ran).
