Nobody cautioned you yet in this thread. Delete the source tree and untar a fresh copy before re-setting the environment and re-running configure. Otherwise, same old mistakes just happen again and again.
I did this recompile myself a few weeks ago on Scientific Linux and I ended up setting QTDIR and QTHOME in the environment. That fixed it. Also, you should only have the devel package for one version of QT at a time. So after putting in the qt4 devel thing, make sure you have no qt3 devel stuff left. pj On Feb 18, 2008 3:39 PM, Steve Litt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Well, after 2 hours I got libqt4-devel loaded, and a 30 minute make ended like > this: > > make all-recursive > make[6]: Entering directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends/qt4' > Making all in ui > make[7]: Entering directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends/qt4/ui' > /usr/lib/qt3//bin/uic -tr lyx::qt_ AboutUi.ui -o AboutUi.h > uic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (4.0 vs. 3.3.6) > make[7]: *** [AboutUi.h] Error 1 > make[7]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends/qt4/ui' > make[6]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 > make[6]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends/qt4' > make[5]: *** [all] Error 2 > make[5]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends/qt4' > make[4]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 > make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends' > make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 > make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src/frontends' > make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src' > make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/slitt/junk/lyx-1.5.3/src' > make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] lyx-1.5.3]$ > > Back when we had xforms as an option, I could easily compile LyX.
