To surpass a bug in gcc2.95.3-PowerPC-, -that generates a LyX faulty binary- I installed gcc3.0.1 under: /opt/experimental/;this rpm includes all the GNU Compiler Collection.Also I uninstalled gcc,gpp etc. which were installed. When compiling LyX1.3.2 the configure script does not recognise Qt and tells: ... checking for Qt library name...failed configure:error:Cannot compile a simple Qt executable.Check you have the right $QTDIR! I uninstalled gcc3.0.1 and installed the compilers that were there (That was the ONLY change)and the configure script no more warns about it and recognises Qt and goes on. Because I need to compile with a non 2.95.3 gcc version,how do I surpass this? NOTE: Obviously,I added /opt/experimental/bin to my PATH.I also added /opt/experimental/lib to ld.so.conf and run ldconfig so what is the problem here ?There is some- thing I should have done when I installed gcc3.0.1 that I didn´t but I don´t realise what. I would appreciate a suggestion. Thank you. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month! http://sbc.yahoo.com
