################################################################################checking for the Qt library name... "qt"
checking for the general Qt directory... failed...continuing with normal checks
checking for the Qt library... found in /usr/lib
checking for the Qt header files... found in /usr/include/qt3
checking for the Qt moc... found as /usr/bin/moc
checking for the multithreaded version of Qt... seems to be available
checking if we can compile an X-Qt application... FAILED
################################################################################### CONFIGURE ERROR:
### Failed to compile the Qt library test program.
### This may be a bad sign
### First of all, make sure that qt is correctly installed on your system,
### and the qt version is the one requested by this version of kvirc.
### Ensure that you have only one copy of qt visible at a time.
### 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.
### The CPPFLAGS used were:
### -I/usr/X11R6/include
### -I/usr/include/qt3
### The CXXFLAGS used were:
### -O2
### -Wall
### -g
### -O2
### The LIBS used were:
### -L/usr/X11R6/lib
### -L/usr/lib
### -lqt-mt
### -lSM
### -lICE
### -L/usr/X11R6/lib
### -lX11
### -lXext
### The LDFLAGS used were:
### -s
### If you're sure that qt is correctly installed , you may force configure
### to skip this check and try to compile kvirc anyway.
### Try using the --without-qt-check option.
### 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.
