hey, i am a new user to linux
i was trying to install a softwere called Apollon on Suse 9.2. i downloaded the .run file coz the website said this file will contain everything i need as far as the plugins.
while i was install it, i had couple of errors but they were easy to deal with, coz in the log file it mentioned a website where i can download sofrwere and install them to get things going. so i i did that couple of times until i reached this msg which i don't know how to deal with!

* configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!


Anybody have any ideas of how to deal with this, or what to do to finish my installing, coz i really wanna try Apollon.


Thank you in advance:newbie:

You need to install the development packages for xorg. I think they are named something like xorg-x11-devel or something similar.

it worked!

i installed xorg-x11-devel-6.8.1-15.4.i586.rpm. when i tried the .run file agian, it passed that error. BUT now i get this:

* configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.2) (library qt-mt) not found. Please check your installation!
* For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
* Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support!
***** Return value 1


i know i might sound dependent here, but i really don't know what it mean.
any ideas ?!!

You need to install qt development packages (qt-devel or libqt-devel).

bme guy 04-08-2005 09:06 PM

Do u know where to find such packages (qt-devel or libqt-devel).
i tried googling it but no luck! i even downloaded and installed qt-eval from qt. it a demo. but i still get the same error!

grab em off your install cd/dvd ( you should always check there first, getting random packages from the net that were not built for Suse 9.2 specifically will cause you problems sooner or later)

when i go to YasT and search under qt3, i can see the packege and its already installed!!

i am trying to install Kaffeine 0.6, and i am getting the same error!!

reddazz 04-09-2005 02:03 PM

Try searching for qt instead of qt3. Suse definitely has this package.

bme guy 04-10-2005 10:25 AM

It's installed already!

There are several package related to qt3. You probably need to install qt3-devel, or maybe qt3-static.

EDIT: I case you are using the EVAL version of 9.2, you may find this interesting:

Development packages usually contain the word "devel".
