I did an 'svn up' and searched for libqt4 on my computer and there is still
no such file. I prefer to use the latest releases for LyX (to ensure that I
can modify documents on any platform with the latest release installed),
hence I downloaded the beta2 source and I'm trying to compile it. Not sure
what I'm missing here, since I was able to compile beta2 with qt4.2.3. Is
there some other package I need installed, like the development package of
gettext or something which may have info on 'libqt4'?

Thanks,
Bob Lounsbury
