You need to install the qt devel packages.

Excuse me if I'm off-topic. - That (the software dependencies issue) is just why I like Debian's or Ubuntu's APT software manager that much: You search for "chm", got some results, choose some, and they're getting installed - automatically, their dependencies get installed, too.
Additionally, Debian's and Ubuntu's repositories are really large; you very rarely need to install software manually (where problems might arise).

Didn't want to annoy anyone, though

You can also do that using YUM on Redhat based distros (yum list | grep -i chm).

QT is free to download and is shipped with RHEL. The package you need to install is called qt-devel and you can do this using RHN. If you did not pay for RHEL, then you are a bit stuck because you can't install packages from RHN without a subscription. You should either subscibe to RHN or use a distro such as CentOS which is a free RHEL rebuild. You can even convert your RHEL box to a CentOS box. You need to install yum (and dependencies) as well as the centos-release rpm for the version of CentOS that matches your version of RHEL.

If you'd followed my precious advice , you were on Ubuntu now.

Anyways, how's the package system (automatically resolving dependencies?), and did you manage to install a decent CHM viewer in the meantime?

Send a screenshot of your current system! Just kidding!
