OK, I'm getting a similar problem with checkinstall. My $QTDIR="/usr/lib/qt3.0.3" QT compiles, ie "make" completes without error (I had to add $QTDIR and $QTDIR/qmake to my $PATH, but it compiled). When I execute "checkinstall", it errors out as follows: --------------------------------------- A bunch of errors like this (this happens to be the last of many): cp: `/usr/lib/qt3.0.3/mkspecs/linux-kcc/qmake.conf' and `/usr/lib/qt3.0.3/mkspecs/linux-kcc/qmake.conf' are the same file followed by: make[2]: [install] Error 1 (ignored) make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/lib/qt3.0.3/qmake' cd src/moc && make make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/lib/qt3.0.3/src/moc' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/qt3.0.3/mkspecs/linux-g++/qmake.conf', needed by `Makefile'.

BTW, If I'm compiling qt3 in the directory where it will ultimately be installed, is there a reason to even perfom a 'make install'? Regards, Tim PS FWIW, 'make install', as expected, creates the same error. _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
