No, but you do need the Qt4 headers, typically
provided by a
package named qt4-devel or similar.
Conclusion of my investigations:
The Qt/Mac Binary Distribution installs all its libraries and includes
in the framework style common to most Mac OS applications.
All the necessary stuff is there, I created a script (dirty, not quite
mature jet, can be improved) that extracts this file, resorts and
renames them and creates a folder with the classical lib and include
directories. I successfully compiled LyX with this created directory.
Does anyone think this is an interesting way to go for Mac users that
don't want to compile Qt for themselves? If yes, I will improve the
script to be more robust and flexible.
Why don't you use the CMake support instead? As a bonus it will generate
an XCode project for you... At least that's what I understood from
Stefan and Peter exchange.
