I ran into this. It's because both the 2.0 and 1.4 versions of QT are
installed (at least it was in my case). I had to tell the configure program
where the proper libs were with one of the options. It kept trying to use
the 2.0 version and failed.
./configure --help | less
will show all of the options. You just need to look and see where the right
ones are (don't recall offhand though I found them easily with xrpm).
