LD_LIBRARY_PATH and QT

[wysota]

It's enough to run your app like this:

$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib ./DT

$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib ./DT

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

ldd won't show DT depend on your local lib directory because your changes to LD_LIBRARY_PATH are not propagated outside the sh script so ldd doesn't see them.

that's the first thing i tried but unfortunately that wasn't enough. the QMAKE flags were necessary. in fact ldd does show that it's looking in the local directory for any libraries placed in the /lib folder now.

I used LD_LIBRARY_PATH many times and I assure you it works. Maybe your lib folder doesn't have the proper symlinks (e.g. libQtCore.so -> libQtCore.so.4.8.1)
