How to install Qt 4?

manz00r · 03-01-2009, 10:29 AM

I typed qt4 in Synaptic Package Manager and there were packages like libqt4 etc etc... I marked it for installation and a number of other software were selected too. Then downloaded and installed it... Everything was completed except one file, but then my internet got disconnected so I quit. But I now I cannot develop on Qt and when I create a Qt project in Eclipse (I integrted eclipse into Qt using the plugin available on Qt's site) and I get the following errors

Code:

Could not execute qmake (no Qt version set). Open Preferences->Qt and set a Qt version to use.

The package which was left was of 58 MB, I think. I can't get know wht package it was so I may install it. any help plz

Oh and Its Ubuntu 8.10

You've to do that and eclipse might work better than first.

Ehm...You made two threads

Let us know. Bye.

Apt will always download all the files it needs before it starts installing, so I guess that there may be something else at work here.

I would try and complete the installation of qt4.

If libqt4 hasn't been installed then you should be able to run:

Code:

sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev

If the update itself was aborted, then you can run this:

Code:

sudo apt-get -f

to fix any broken dependencies.

You may need to run either or both of these, and neither one should risk your system.

Hope that helps,

@metrofox: There is no Qt in System > Preferences

@rjlee: Typed the above commands and they were already installed.

Code:

libqt4-dev is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  linux-headers-2.6.27-7 linux-headers-2.6.27-7-generic
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Sorry for the double post, I double clicked the 'submit' button

It might help you, but you've to know that all commands and all paths could be wrong, it depends by the distribution you use.

Let us know again. Have a good day. Bye.
