Sorry to butt in on Shane's original thread, but here is a "me too". I have been having this trouble for a VERY long time. I haven't been able to compile anything that needed the configure script. :-( Before, I could use --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt3 and it would at least find the headers (it would bomb out due to not finding the libraries). However, from the beginning of this week, a new qt3 headers package was downloaded when I did an apt-get upgrade and now I have no /usr/share/qt3 directory!!! (still got /usr/share/qt). I'm almost at the point of giving up. Anyone got any ideas? TIA
