Re: [newbie] KDE Libraries... Where?
I agree I have been starting to relearn C and learn the *nux way of doing things. It is kind of discouraging when the Qt examples that were installed with Linux-Mandrake will not compile. (Oh no! "hello world" doesn't work? I think something is wrong!) At least when you are following the tutorial linked off the Qt home page (I think it is also installed on the hard drive with the Qt lib when you select the development install) I haven't given up! I just have found other distractions right now. I have the red book (Linux Programming) from Worx and will probably dig into it when the snow flies. I will have to check /etc/ld.do.conf, I know it isn't in the bash profile. This is the newbie list right?

[newbie] KDE Libraries... Where?
Can someone tell me where Mandrake 6.0 puts the KDE libraries? The K-Develop IDE is asking for them but I can't seem to find them anywhere! Thanks
Re: [newbie] KDE Libraries... Where?
I was told that the Qt Lib is in the /usr/lib and the headers are in the /usr/include/qt. This will cause all kinds of headaches for KDE development since it is not the standard place that Qt and SuSE expects. I haven't even written hello world yet in Linux but I have compiled a few source tar balls for KDE apps. It is a pain for that. PBen On Mon, 27 Sep 1999 18:54:24 -0700, "Eric L.
