i just did this last night, i wanted to install XMPS (DivX, ASF media player). I didn't want to install the debianzed version because that may break existing applications, so i just compiled the source in /usr/local/qt per the directions in the qt source package, then when i run XMPS i do: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/qt/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/avifile/bin/aviplay this way i can keep QT1/kde1.1 and use qt2 stuff at the same time. I installed the kde2/qt2 packages at work and am not satisfied with their stability so i did it this way for my home desktop. although this may not be a good solution if you are planning on running something like KDE. nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
