Orly,

You are right.  egcs-g++ was what I needed.  Actually, I needed a lot more
of libraries and I installed all of them. I guess it is a good idea to
install lib files during installation to avoid problems when compiling
applications which does not have rpm or deb packages.

Anyway, I have successfully compiled Qt and it is now working.  I also got
to install the rpm package of Qcad which is a CAD application that uses Qt.
 However, I had to install the rpm using the -nodeps option because the rpm
did not detect a Qt library which it needed. I have not test Qcad
thoroughly but it ran decently on my machine.

I also successfully compiled a game called Lletters which is an alphabet
game for kids.  If any of the pluggers here have two year olds, I highly
recommend this program  which is also customisable.  Just be prepared to
not have access to your computer for a while once you let them play this
game.  I am sure they will enjoy it.  I got both programs above from
www.sourceforge.net. 

Thanks to all who helped.

Holden
