I've been having this problem for a while now, but have not managed to fix it yet.

 

I'm using SuSE 9.0 Personal and I want to install new versions of the graphical apps it has. Whenever I try to ./configure any of these apps - I get:

 



Code:
checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.3) (library qt-mt) not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support!




 

I have tried recompiling it numerous times (with and without thread support), installing an RPM, but the funny thing is, the graphical apps using QT that come with SuSE are already installed and working fine. How do I install QT stuff?

 

Also, I now seem to have a similar problem with GTK apps. I tried to ./configure The GIMP 2.2.8, and I get:

 



Code:
checking for pkg-config... no
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.4.5... no
*** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.
*** See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/
configure: error: Test for GLIB failed. See the file 'INSTALL' for help.




 

 

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong to prevent installation of graphical apps o_O

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

I think I better split this up, so we'll just go for QT here.

 

I definitely have installed qt-devel-3.3.4 and have tried compiling it with and without threads support.

Since I have SUSE 10 now, this is no longer an issue.

 

Thanks for the help, though. :)
