Qt version: 4.5.1

I followed the instructions at

http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5.1/deplo...-qt-statically

and I built Qt statically.


Then I compiled statically an application of mine.


However that page mentions:

To check that the application really links statically with Qt, run the ldd tool (available on most Unices):

ldd ./application

Verify that the Qt libraries are not mentioned in the output.

My application does not run as stand alone, producing the following:

Qt Code: 
  1. john@ubuntu810-64:~/Desktop/download$ ./optics 
  2. ./optics: error while loading shared libraries: libQtGui.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 


and the aforementioned "ldd ./application" produces:

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

If I understand correctly, the "not found" libraries are the only ones not statically linked in the executable.

Any ideas on how to achieve this?


Thanks.
