Hi Oded
You probably use qt >=2
KDE1 must use qt 1.4.x (1.4.4 mostly).
The best solution is to install them both (qt 2.x.x & qt 1.4.4), while in
ld.so.conf you put only qt 2.x.x (because this one is used mostly), and
when you compile a kde1 program, just tell it to use qt
(--with-qt-includes ?) 1.4.4 .. just point it to your qt 1.4.4 directory.
That's really stupid, I know. kde2 doesn't require qt 1.4.x anymore.
Cya,
Oren.
