Error in compiling QT-5.0 on ubuntu linux

sierdzio

Precompiled package is compiled on Ubuntu. There might be library naming clashes. Compile the stuff yourself or symlink the libraries to cheat the package.

Hi everybody I got some errors while installing qt4.7.0 version in redhat linux 5.5 version...
Firstly i have copied all the files into a folder and moved to that folder using terminal.
Over their I gave a command "./configure"
Then all the configuration files are executed.
Then after I gave "gmake" command
It gave a error like this:
[user@localhost qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0]$ gmake
cd src/tools/bootstrap/ && /home/user/Desktop/qt\ installation/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/bin/qmake /home/user/Desktop/qt installation/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/src/tools/bootstrap/bootstrap.pro -spec ../../../mkspecs/linux-g++ -o Makefile
Cannot find file: /home/user/Desktop/qt.
Cannot find file: installation/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/src/tools/bootstrap/bootstrap.pro.
gmake: *** [src/tools/bootstrap/Makefile] Error 2

When I give ""gmake install "" command
It gave errors like this

[user@localhost qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0]$ gmake install
cd src/tools/bootstrap/ && /home/user/Desktop/qt\ installation/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/bin/qmake /home/user/Desktop/qt installation/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/src/tools/bootstrap/bootstrap.pro -spec ../../../mkspecs/linux-g++ -o Makefile
Cannot find file: /home/user/Desktop/qt.
Cannot find file: installation/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/src/tools/bootstrap/bootstrap.pro.
gmake: *** [src/tools/bootstrap/Makefile] Error 2

Which package have you downloaded?

santhosh

qt‐everywhere‐opensource‐src‐4.7.0

sierdzio

Tarball or zip?

santhosh

actually it was tarball but it was unable to unzip those file in linux so i have unzipped those files in windows and copied back into linux and installed

sierdzio

Either a broken download or some nasty Windows conversion bug, it would seem.

This should extract the archive. If it fails, check the checksums, maybe your download is bad:
@
tar -xaf qt‐everywhere‐opensource‐src‐4.7.0.tar.gz
@

ya i have tried this but it is saying that ""permission denined""....
Then i have changed the permissions using chmod command....
After this some unzip process went on and i didnt find the extracted file and it is saying that
""nothing is changed""

santhosh

qt creator was installed successfully but there was some problem with gmake

sierdzio

it extracts to a directory named the same as the tarball.

santhosh

Will be their any problem with Operating System

santhosh

I didnt find any such file or folder

sierdzio

I don't think so. RedHat is a big distro, I've never heard people having trouble running Qt there.
