For those of you who prefer RPMS like me:

[KennySP]

I've recently created a src.rpm of qt-2.3.2 that compiles with GCC3.

You can get the src.rpm at http://aleph.atecgroup.com/~chrisf/RPMS/qt2-2.3.2-1.src.rpm

You can download that and then run:
rpm --rebuild qt2-2.3.2-1.src.rpm

Binary versions of those RPM's, compiled on RedHat 7.2 are also available from http://aleph.atecgroup.com/~chrisf/RPMS/index.html

My recommendation is to download the src.rpm and compile it on your system, I've put the binary versions there for those who would honestly take 4+ hours to compile it.

in the general discussion forum, zaphod has already posted rpms for qt 2.3.2, and i have posted debian packages.

KennySP:

Thank you for the great help. I am new at all this and I am struggling. I can get v4 to run but it does not decode. I think I have fouled up the required updates to RH7.2.

If you are so disposed, would you mind posting the actual rpm command needed to use your rpm? I am not at all clear what command options are needed.

Your kind assistance is appreciated by many.

type this

"man rpm"

read it

Casey,

Please see my response under your other post.

To use the source RPM, you will issue the following command while in the directory you downloaded the src.rpm to:

If you havn't touched anything (including have not downloaded the src.rpm) you will issue the command:

rpm --rebuild http://aleph.atecgroup.com/~chrisf/RPMS/qt2-2.3.2-1.src.rpm

If you have already downloaded the RPM you will change into the directory you downloaded the RPM to and issue the command:

rpm --rebuild qt2-2.3.2-1.src.rpm

That will go through the entire compilation and then you will just need to install the rpm's it creates (Located in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386)
