qt-x11 qt4 configure Darwin


Message 1 in thread

Hi, I'm having problems running ./configure of qt-x11 (qt4 version)  
under Darwin. I'm trying to get qt to install as an X11 software  
under Darwin to experiment on Unix development on the said OS. But  
everytime I run ./configure, it seems to be treating it as an Apple  
platform. I need it to run under Darwin. Any workaround on this? Thanks

	If you are using an Intel Mac, thats easy. Create a linux setup  
under Parrallell Desktop or WMWare Fusion,
and build the X11 version of QT on that.

Despite having a configuration for darwin-g++ qt4 doesn't build as a
pure-x11 package out of the box.

I recently got it working myself with some patching, though, if you
want to give it a shot...  ;)

http://svn.finkproject.org/svn/users/ranger/trunk/experimental/10.4/main/finkinfo/x11/qt4-x11.patch

Keep in mind, too, this patch is against KDE's qt-copy, which is a
tree which includes the qt/x11 *and* qt/mac source in one tree, so it
still may not work with a "pure" qt/x11 source tree.

Well, it's not officially supported by trolltech, and not exactly
simple to get happy...  it's pretty much tailor-made for the way I
need it to be in Fink.  If you're wanting to run qt4/x11 on osx,
you're pretty much off the beaten path and have to be prepared to dig
into it yourself...

Easiest is to install fink, make sure unstable is enabled, and 'fink
install qt4-x11'  ;)
