qt3 library problems


Basically I want to use dcgui-qt (wich is a really good DirectConnect program for linux). But when I try to start it, it says:

"dcgui-qt: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

So, I searched my box, and this is what I found:

/usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib/libqt.prl
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib/libqt.so.3.0.4
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib/libqt.so.3.0
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib/libqt.so.3
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.4/lib/libqt.so

So, I've been able to figure out that I'm missing some libraries. I've been searching for them for the past 15 hours or so (seriously!). I even downloaded a library and compiled it (5 hours!). It claimed to provide libqt-mt.so.3, but it didn't. I can't understand this, I'm getting extremely frustrated over here. And I'm almost out of coffee. Please help me, I'm loosing my mind here. And I fear my girlfriend is about to run away since I have been cursing and swearing and screaming and drinking coffee for the past 15 ours (still not kidding here!).

Help

The libraries your looking for are multi-thread versions of the ones you have. You can't usually use both on the same system they conflict badly. You'll have to remove the current libs and install the multi-thread versions. ( The multi-thread are the most commonly used ). If you want to compile them you need to pass the -thread flag to configure.

They are available on Slacks website.
