Well, that was not really the answer I was looking for. I know how to build things from source but that's not what I want, I want to use a package manager to keep it simple. The idea of using a package manager is that you just install a few packages and it pulls the necessary dependencies automatically. I install "qtcreator" because it installs all necessary packages to develop and build Qt-4 Apps, including "qmake" and "uic". I want to put it into the manual for my project for FreeBSD: <https://wiki.physik.fu-berlin.de/linux-minidisc/doku.php?id=compilingonfreebsd> It's supposed to be a quick and dirty guide on howto build on FreeBSD.
