Possibly could save me time, I don't know, but as I rebuild often for testing, I build each package clean each time. In my automake scripts I run this: cp -p "$LIBTOOLM4" admin/libtool.m4.in cp -p "$LTMAINSH" admin/ltmain.sh echo "Building..." echo make -f admin/Makefile.common CFLAGS=$CPUOPT \ CXXFLAGS=$CPUOPT \ ./configure \ --prefix=${PREFIX} \ --sysconfdir=${SYSCONFDIR} \ --libdir=${LIBDIR} \ --mandir=${MANDIR} \ $DEBUG_AUTOTOOL_OPT \ --enable-closure || exit 1 Where on my system (Slackware): LIBTOOLM4="/usr/lib/build/libtool.m4" LTMAINSH="/usr/lib/build/ltmain.sh" > checking for X... libraries /usr/lib, headers . > checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes > checking for libXext... yes > Detected TQt4... > checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... yes > checking for extra includes... no > checking for extra libs... no > checking for libz... -lz > checking for libpng... -lpng -lz -lm > checking for libjpeg6b... no > checking for libjpeg... -ljpeg > checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl > checking for Qt... checking for pkg-config... > /usr/bin/pkg-config > configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 4.3 and < 5.0) (headers > and libraries) not found. > Please check your installation! > For more details about this problem, look at the end of > config.log. > > I get Detected TQt4 no matter what? In my tdeutils build log, which I just ran a bit ago: Detected TQt3... I don't think your build script is finding tqt.h in the expected location: /usr/include/tqt/tqt.h. Where do you have tqtinterface installed? Right now the install location of tqtinterface is hard-set to only /usr/include. If you look at tdeutils/admin/acinclude.m4.in:1252, you'll see the test for Qt3/Qt4. I don't understand M4 syntax very well, but I see the following: CXXFLAGS="-I/usr/include/tqt" AC_TRY_COMPILE([ #define TQT_VERSION_ONLY #include <tqt.h> Notice the presumption that tqt.h is found in /usr/include/tqt. I'm guessing that if you don't have tqtinterface installed to /usr/include/tqt and you have Qt4 installed in your build environment, then you get what you now see in your build log. For building purposes I do not have Qt4 or KDE4 installed in my Trinity build environment. I keep my build environment as clean as possible to avoid conflicts and bad linking. I use a master control script to run each pacage's build script. Through that master build script I explicitly set the following: PREFIX: /opt/trinity SYSCONFDIR: /etc/trinity LIBDIR: /opt/trinity/lib MANDIR: /opt/trinity/man PKG_CONFIG_PATH: /opt/trinity/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig QTDIR: /opt/trinity QT_INCLUDE_DIR: /opt/trinity/include QT_LIB_DIR: /opt/trinity/lib LD_LIBRARY_PATH: /opt/trinity/lib:/opt/trinity/lib/trinity PATH: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/trinity/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/share/texmf/bin I can change those variables but seldom do.
