ajarmstrong : 05/11/01 02:51 AM : Incident created
-   I'm a newbie experimenting with KDevelop. Whenever I attempt to create a new project (other than Terminal/Console applications), the project wizard fails with the following message:




Configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 2.2.2) (libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.




I've checked, and the KDE and QT libraries appear to be installed on my machine. Anyone able to offer any troubleshooting advice?

TIA,
AJA

-   Do you also have the 'devel' RPMs installed? ie: libqt2-devel

-   Yes. According to the software manager, I have:

libqt2-2.3.1-14mdk
libqt2-devel-2.3.1-14mdk
libqt2-static-devel-2.3.1-14mdk

-   Try removing the 'static-devel' or add the configure option
--with-qt-dir=... to point to the specific qt.

And take a look at the config.log

 
ajarmstrong : 05/11/01 02:45 PM : More info provided
-   The problem predates the install of the static libraries - I installed them as part of the troubleshooting process, but will try removing. The --with-qt-dir line is a command line switch for launching KDevelop, I assume? If not, please let me know where the config file to add it to might reside.
I'll try when I'm back home tonight.

PS - Thanks for your help.

-   You might also need a "export QTDIR=/where/qt/is" line in your .bashrc
configuration file. I'm not sure if Mandrake is using the /usr tree for QT
these days.

-   try compile manually with g -o whatever.o /usr/libs/*qt.so

 
ajarmstrong : 20/11/01 02:36 AM : More info provided
-   Thanks, all. Been away for a while. Will try the above and let you know. (Probly be a couple of days...got some catching up to do...).

 
BOSSoNe : 27/11/01 06:21 PM : More info requested
-   i've the same problem and it's not just for kdev. but all configure scripts.
i've QT 2.3.x and i think the problem came from the test of QT install in the configure script
(which is create by autoconf)
QT 2.2.x -> work
QT 2.3.x -> no
i've all the packages needed, in my bashrc i declare QTDIR, in ld.so.conf the QT lib dir.
so what is the solution, for the moment i don't know.

 
ajarmstrong : 09/12/01 10:52 PM : More info provided
-   I've got some other issues showing up now. Have decided to rebuild the box and try again. Will close the issue until I have time to explore more on my own (or if the problem goes away w/ rebuild). Thanks to all for their help.
