Find the Qt root directory

[sajis997]

Hello forum,

I am using Linux and i have to compile umbrello - the uml model editor from the source.

The compilation cannot find the qt installation path even though the Qt is installed. So i think i have mention the prefix with the configure command while configuring the umbrello.

I found the include(/usr/include /qt4/) and lib(/usr/lib/qt4/) directory for the qt. But what is the root directory(.....). Which path should i provide with? How to find the root path of the Qt installation?


Regards

If the Umbrello build cannot find Qt with cmake then it seem likely that qmake is missing or broken.

• Does

  qmake -v

  qmake -v

  return a Qt version number and path?
• Do you have the KDE 4 and Qt 4 development packages from your distro installed?
• What is the exact error message?

The CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX in the install instruction refers to where you want the end product to be installed, not where Qt is installed.
