and compilation command:

Is that system problem? qt config problem?

Thanks,

Natalie - Did you ever resolve this problem? i'm having similar problems while trying to build Qt 4.8.7 on 64-bit RHEL6 machine.

Thanks.

Are you trying to build a 64-bit or a 32-bit version of Qt 4.8.7? If you are trying to build a 32-bit version, you may need to add multilib support (among other things) to your RHEL6 to get all of the 32-bit headers and libraries needed to build a 32-bit app on a 64-bit linux-based OS. By default, most linux OS versions are configured with build support only for the same "bitness" as the OS and hardware itself, ie. 64-bit in your case.

If this is your problem, google for something like "build 32-bit on 64-bit linux" to get more information than you'll ever need.

Thanks for the information. Yes, I'm in building a 32-bit on a 64-bit machine.

You mentioned adding multilib support. I checked my /etc/yum.conf file, and saw "multilib_policy=all". Does that cover adding multilib support?

Do I have to build from source? Are there pre-compiled versions available for 32-bit Qt 4.8.7?

thanks again.
