Ok. here we go..
Upgraded my linux box to a clean 7.2 Redhat
installed all needed RPMS
installed the needed QT
got most recent libEQ.a
downloaded the 4.0 CVS from the showeq dir

After a long road.. all rpms and qt installed with NO Errors

But... when i goto /root/showeq and

do make -f Makefile.dist

I get this error: instantly

Adding libtool support ...................make [1]: *** [no-backup] Error 127
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any ideas.. I'm SOOOO close to finishing after 14+ hours
thanks

Still don't have all the rpms you need. Read the INSTALL file. Hint is "libtool". I'd tell you outright, but I am too lazy to switch windows and find the exact rpm name.

But the INSTALL file lists a bunch of tools automake, autoconf, libtools, each is a seperate package under redhat that needs to be installed.

Finally got everything installed on my computer and showeq is compiling now. Was quite a trick to get RH 7.2 installed on 512M hard drive and still have X, development tools, and enough space to compile qt and showeq. Have to use a 10 year old windows manager, but that just brings back memories :).

How it all works out. Next thing they will do is require gnome or kde for showeq and really up my disk requirements.

(Ratt, that was not a suggestion :))

Zan is wise beyond his years "unless he is 300"

One tip tho... I'd not try the latest version of QT from www.trolltech.com

Just FTP in and get 2.3.2 and I think you will be much more happy

good luck

where does one get devel 2.3.2 of QT? i can't seem to be able to find it at qt's site...

everything is compiling fine for me now, but when I go to run showeq, I get an library error saying it can't find some lightGrey color and quits to command line without segfault...

only thing i'm missing is devel libs for the qt 2.3.2 version
