Hello there

I'm trying to install qt 3.3.3 but i get some compilation errors
This is probably due to the fact that i don't know where to set the QTDIR env variable as is said in the INSTALL file before compilation
I've tried both .bash_profile in users home dir and .profile in root's home.
Logged off and in.
echo $QTDIR
nothing.

Anyone has some suggestion as to where to set these variables.

I'm running Debian Sarge.

.bash_profile should work OK. Are you using export? ie,

export QTDIR=/foo/bar

.bash_profile doesn't work whatshowever
I've tested this by adding a dir to the path env and that also doesn't work

i now tried to add something to /root/.bashrc
that seems to work but only for user root
perhaps a restart will solve it systemwide.

but i still get the same error compiling qt being.

Add the:
to /etc/profile

thnx batory

Looks like the Qt build system is busted.

O.k. so i guess i just have to run make confclean and reconfigure?
possibly install something that has to do with pthread?

O.k QT runs.

I have as said in previous post installed the
apt-get install kaffe-pthreads
apt-get install kaffe-pthreads-profile (however i'm not sure this one is neccesary)
added the enviroment variables mentioned in the INSTALL file to /etc/profile file
ran make confclean
./configure --threads (to make sure it uses the threads as they are needed to compile boson and prokyon3)
make

What i didn't find out however since kfind is not functioning is where the hell debian installed the imbedded qt and how and if i should remove it.
Anybody want's to tell me if it can cause trouble running both on one system?
