Installation Problems

[stlinux]

Hi all,

Im trying to install qbittorent on to my newly installed Vector Linux, and when i do ./configure it comes with the error

Reason: Unable to find the 'qmake' tool for Qt 4.

Be sure you have a proper Qt 4.0 build environment set up. This means not
just Qt, but also a C++ compiler, a make tool, and any other packages
necessary for compiling C++ programs.

If you are certain everything is installed, then it could be that Qt 4 is not
being recognized or that a different version of Qt is being detected by
mistake (for example, this could happen if $QTDIR is pointing to a Qt 3
installation). At least one of the following conditions must be satisfied:

1) --qtdir is set to the location of Qt
2) $QTDIR is set to the location of Qt
3) QtCore is in the pkg-config database
4) qmake is in the $PATH

This script will use the first one it finds to be true, checked in the above
order. #3 and #4 are the recommended options. #1 and #2 are mainly for
overriding the system configuration.

What do I need to do to fix this as I dont really undertsnad what to do. Please help!!!

Thanks in advance

Vector comes with Qt 3.3.7, you'll need to install a later version. Just Gslapt it out of the repo

What do you mean by Gslapt it out of the repo

Ah, sorry, you hadn't found Gslapt yet? You'll be pleased


It's in the menu under /system/administration/software_installer(Gslapt)


It asks for your root password, and then it connects to the repository. Just type 'qt' in the search window that pops up and press enter. It's easy from there
