Posted: Fri Feb 16, 2007 11:37 pm Post subject: Qt |
|
|
I want to install krn in pardus but when I do ./configure I get this error:
| Code: | checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt >= 1.42 (libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
Gurbuz@pardus krn-0.6.12 $ |
In Tasma I installed everything with the characters qt in it but still this error.
Where can I get Qt? I googled and installed "qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.2.tar.gz" but still same error.
Please any help.

Maybe you should give the right parameters when running ./configure, to tell where the Qt-libs can be found on your system.
Tryto get a list of the possible parameters.

./configure --help doesn't work. It gives the following output: | Code: | Gurbuz@pardus ~ $ ./configure --help
bash: ./configure: Onbekend bestand of map
Gurbuz@pardus ~ $ configure --help
bash: configure: command not found
Gurbuz@pardus ~ $ |
Where are the qt libraries installed usually?
And can anyone give me the command to tell ./configure where the Qt-libs are?

You'll have to give the "./configure --help"-command from within the directory, where you have stored the krn sourcecode. Because it is certainly there, as you pointed out yourself in your first post in this thread.

ok I thind I have to add "--with-qt-libraries=DIR" to the ./configure command. In the help file it sais: | Code: | --with-qt-includes=DIR where the Qt includes are.
--with-qt-libraries=DIR where the Qt library is installed. |
Instead of DIR (after =) I assume I have to put the dir. where my qt lib.'s are?
But I can't find the Qt libraries. Where does pardus install them on default?

I think you have to do both:
| Code: | | ./configure --with-qt-includes=/usr/qt/3/include --with-qt-libraries=/usr/qt/3/lib |

This is so frustrating! I did | Code: | | ./configure --with-qt-includes=/usr/qt/3/include --with-qt-libraries=/usr/qt/3/lib |
and still it sais "Configure: error: Qt>= 1.42 (libraries) not found. Please check your installation"
But with konqueror I can navigat to /usr/qt/3/lib. I'm sure it excists.
Any solutions to this?
I also tried this | Code: | | ./configure --with-qt-includes=/usr/qt/3/include --with-qt-libraries=/usr/qt/3/lib | command as root. Still same problem.

I looked some further into it: according to http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/sourceforge/k/kr/krn/krn-0.6.12-1.i386.html a file called libqt.so.1 is required, and this file isn't in QT anymore.
And according to http://krn.sourceforge.net/ the last version of krn (0.6.12) dates from september 26, 2000 and so it is very old.
I think it was based on a very early version of QT (version 1.x.x?), and QT 3.5, which is the version shipped with Pardus, isn't backwards compatible with this early version.
Maybe you should search for some more recent newsreader.

Ok, thanks.
But I have waste more dan a week looking for a good newsreader. Some only show posts of only today. And not old posts. And some like Thunderbird show everytihing but I can't download anything from this posts.
I tried almost every newsreader availible for linux. I looked here: http://www.newsreaders.com/unix/clients.html
but the best seems to be "klibido" but can't install that
either. I'll post the error later today.
