Issues building 4.3.2 x11 shared version on Ubuntu 7.10

[rickbsgu]

Trying to shared build qt4 on Ubuntu 7.10.

After doing the configure, I start the build - qtcore seems to build ok, but the subsequent builds (x11, gui, etc.) rely on qtcore. The build fais with 'cannot find -lQtCore' during the link. The -L is pointing to the right place, and there are the following qtcore entries in the lib directory:

libQtCore.la
libQtCore.prl
libQtCore.so.4.3.2
libQtCore.so.4.3.2.debug

Here's the config line:

./configure -prefix (unzip path) -debug -fast -no-qt3support -optimized-qmake

./configure -prefix (unzip path) -debug -fast -no-qt3support -optimized-qmake

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The installation is the same as the build directory (which the build process seems to acknowledge and tells me not to do a 'make install'.) I've tried removing everything but the -debug flag, and I still get the same result.

Wazzup? Is the build process needing to do a 'ln -s' of one of the libqtCore.* entries to libQtCore.{so,a} or some such thing? Why can't it find the -lQtCore?

Scratching my head... for the interim I've built it statically and that will have to do, for now.
