OK ... next question in my quest to compile a package (of course, knowing me, I've almost certainly chosen one that's not normal) :-) The instructions for ScribuS say to ensure that QT2 is in the /etc/ld.so.conf file ... I think I've figured that, just add the /usr/lib/qt2 line to the file. However ... changing (as it suggests) QTDIR to point to the same place (making sure QTDIR contains the path to QT2) sounds a bit dubious .... firstly I don't actually know how to do it but secondly I though KDE3 was based on QT3 and KDE2 on QT2 so won't I be screwing things up if I point the environmental variable to QT2? Or do I only need to do this for compiling and then it switches back? James C.
