I switched to ptxdist to generate my ARM compiler and that provided me
with a more complete build. Now I am getting the following error.
Cross-compiling for ARM on x86:
/..../bin/qmake: 1: Syntax error : word unexpected (expecting ")")
This error happens during the configure, before you get to the prompt
for the pixel-depth support.

Error 1: Ubuntu uses sh->dash symliink.
Soln: remove that and make sure you have sh symlinked to bash.
Error 2:
qtopia has to build qmake for x86 (host) first before building
libraries for arm (target). What configure options do I need to give
such that g++ is used to make qmake but arm-linux-g++ is used to build
the rest?

In Qtopia 4 no need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. In fact, it will mess things up.

If you are using Qtopia 4, then all this should happen automatically. On
earlier versions, qmake and friends had to be built manually, or beforehand
using qt2-x11

If I am building Qtopia 4.x from source, it also builds assistant,
linguist, and designer. But those are built to depend on qvfb! So do
I need to use qt4-x11 to build assistant, linguist, and designer from
the Qtopia 4.x source? Because it is not entirely clear.

What is the configure line you are using?

Actually, that was the wrong one. That was for the ARM build. This
is the one I used for the x86.
./configure -no-accessibility -no-qt3support -no-mmx -qvfb
-qt-gfx-vnc --prefix=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qtopia-4.3.0Beta

If this is Qtopia Core, then you need to download the corresponding Qt
X11, and build qvfb with that.
Sorry about the confusion.
