qt 3 problem
 

while i was installing chm_viewer on my pc and running ./configure

it said:

............

For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.


i m using suse9pro. my qt is definitely 3! thus, i ran ./configure ---with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt3/

well... the same result came out again. what's wrong with it? can you help pls...thx very much!
:newbie:

well is it actually located at /usr/lib/qt3? or is it something like /usr/lib/qt-3.1 or whatever ... ? also you may have a couple of qt directories there, in case you did an upgrade or for whatever reasons, so are you sure you selected the right one when ya passed that argument?
worse comes to worse, manually edit the configure script and manually type in where your qt directory is, after you search and find in the script where it is, and fix it that way...

i m sure there is only one qt3 under /usr/lib/ directory. i used find command to try to search all the qt files. this is the only one which contian "qt" key words under /usr/lib/ . thanks for your kindly help.

anyone knows? help pls~~~~~~

Maybe you need to install the qt-dev-package,
too? Qt3's shared libs may be installed (otherwise
KDE wouldn't work) but you probably don't have
the headers ... those aren't required unless you
compile KDE/Qt software from source.

Try
locate qt | grep \/include\/
If it gives you lots of files with a
.h extension you have them ;)

oh yeah. u refered my another question: i don't have a "locate" command in my machine. what do i need to install for it to work? ..... sorry for my idiot question. but i have no way. thanks!

Well, I haven't touched a SuSE machine in ages.
I'd assume that on your CD's there's a package
called slocate - install that, and off you go ;)
