Hi,
I thought I would give my feedback on the install of qt4.2.
I downloaded qt-x11-opensource-src-4.20-rcl.tar.gz
last night and did the install. I had a few problems.
I installed on a Fedora Core 3 laptop.
1. ./configure with no options generated many errors
that related to a line in .qmake.cache of the form
--cflags = [ stuff]
This line caused an error in everything. Looking at the
compile commands later, you could see the include paths
were wrong which was why none of the Qt classes were being found.
These lines had a libmsql in them. So I thought I would
try to add mysql support directly.
2. ./configure -qt-sql-mysql failed because my mysql was too old
(I do have FC 3 after all).
3. ./configure -no-sql-mysql set up the configuration properly
and the install was then successful.
I believe the configure script was confused by my old mysql edition
and failed in a less than graceful manner. This error probably wouldn't
show up if you compiled on a new FC setup.
I have Qt3 (standard in FC3), Qt4.1 and now Qt4.2 installed on this
laptop. All the demos in the Qt4.2 install seem to work fine.
