I downloaded knewspost from here: http://www.semeniuk.net/linux/knewspost/ There's only 2 download and install possibilities, tarball and rpm. I went with the tarball. After unpacking the archive, I tried to install it with ./configure. The procedure crapped out when it failed to find the Qt libraries. Here is the error message: checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 2.2.2) (libraries) not found. Please check your installation! For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log. After a short Google search, I found this message thread, which is essentially the same problem... http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/history/15376 So following this advice... export QTDIR=/usr/share/qt, I went ahead and did a export QTDIR=/usr/share/qt and tried .configure again, but got the same error. I also tried export QTDIR=/usr/share/qt3, and again got the same error when I did ./configure even though qt and qt3 are actually there. So, what else needs to be done for knewspost to install correctly? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
