 |
|
when I do an emerge kvirc, I get this error
| Code: |
checking for the Qt library name... qt
checking for the general Qt directory... failed...continuing with normal checks
checking for the Qt library... FAILED
################################################################################
### CONFIGURE ERROR:
### Can not find the qt 2.2 library file.
### Make sure that qt is correctly installed on your system,
### and the qt version is the one requested by this version of kvirc.
### (Usually a greater version is OK too)
### Try to run configure again, this time passing the --with-qt-library-dir
### option (see ./configure --help).
### You may also take a look at the config.log file in this directory,
### that will tell you which check has failed and maybe more about the reason
### of the failure.
### If you're feeling that this may be a bug in this configure script
### and want to report this to me , please include your configure script,
### the config.log file as well as the complete configure output.

And I would guess you got something like this: | Quote: | * x11-libs/qt
Latest version Available: 3.0.4-r1
Latest version Installed: [ Not Installed ]
Homepage: http://www.trolltech.com/
Description:
QT version 3.0.4 |
So you need to do a | Code: | | emerge --pretend qt |
see how much you need to d/l, compile and install. Then if happy a:
Add qt to your /etc/make.conf if it's not there already.
Then re-emerge kvirc |

ok, those 2 general suggestions probably don't work...
What version of kvirc are you trying to emerge. Version 3.0.0 needs qt 3 and version kvirc-2.1.1 requires 2.3. I doubt kvirc 2.1.1 builds with qt 3.0.4 but I don't know for sure... |

What did you find in /etc/ld.so.conf? If you have Qt installed then there should be a directory of qt librarys somewhere. Have a look around /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib for them. I dont have qt installed so i can't tell you where they are on my computer. On a redhat box in the lab they're in
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib
If thats the case your /etc/ld.so.conf should include
| Code: | | /usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib |
If it's not there the configure script wont be able to find the qt lbrary path without you manually pasing it using the --with-qt-library-dir flag.
After you edit /etc.so.conf you must run ldconfig. |
