In your build tree, you should find a human readable file src/frontends/libfrontends.la. This file is used by libtool to ascertain which external libraries are needed. Here for example, I find: # Libraries that this one depends upon. dependency_libs=' -L/usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib -lqt' It appears that libtool is also using a file libqt.la (perhaps to be found at /usr/lib/libqt.la?) that contains information about the location of libqt.a... Hope this gets you started... -- Angus
