can't find libqt-mt.so.3

lindberg.bill · 03-06-2007, 09:05 PM

This is a dependency for the Tiemu a calculator emulator. I really just need a good equation solver and higher math interface, but I'm having trouble getting this to work. I'm open to suggestions of others. I especially need a program that can solve for variables given equations. Yes, sounds lazy, but any hoo. If you know a place to find this lib, a good place to search, or an easier equation solver to install, let me know.
Thank You.

well it should be in '/usr/lib/qt-3.3.6/lib', if you installed the qt package. Now when running './configure' you might need to add something like

Code:

./configure --libdir='/usr/lib/qt-3.3.6'

because, for some reason, qt needs to be isolated from /usr/lib

Judging by google that library is part of QT. If you still have you slackware CD you can install it, if not goto http://www.slackware.com/getslack/ choose a mirror nearest to you, browse to the the slackware/kde directory. Copy and paste the link for qt-3.3.6-i486-4.tgz
Open a terminal and type

Code:

wget (press right mouse to paste the link)
installpkg qt-3.3.6-i486-4.tgz
ldconfig

and your program will work

Forgot to ask ... or I assumed you were compiling this from source ... indeed if you install qt (and maybe symlink the right file to /usr/lib if necessary), a binary will work.

I assumed that QT wasn't installed because if it was, /usr/lib is in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH by default, so his program should have picked it up.. although, I've had many a problem with libraries and missing symlinks!

Sorry for not informing you all of the real problem. I'm having trouble finding the package so that I can install it. It is one of the dependencies of a program I want to use. I will try the method of getting it from the install cd, I have the whole set. I was not aware that they contained additional lib's.

I will also check to see if I do already have it. I just assume that when I get an error about a lib, it means I need to install it. Perhaps that is not a good assumption.
