<div dir="ltr">I am a new user of Qt (using

<p>What distro are you using?</p>
<p>In order to install a library in such a way that you can use it
in new programs, you have to install both it and its development
header files. There are generally two ways to do this:</p>
<p>* The easy way - install the development header package for your
library of choice through your distro's package manager.<br clear="none">
* The hard, dangerous way that you probably don't want yet - build
the library from source and then either install it directly or
figure out how to point your build system to it.</p>
<p>Obviously I'd recommend the former if you're just getting
started. On Ubuntu, the package you want is called
"libkf5archive-dev", and can be installed with "sudo apt install
libkf5archive-dev". This will probably work on Debian too. If
you're on some other distro, you'll need to find and install the
right package.</p><div id="ydp630d156ayiv9396602012yqtfd55567" class="ydp630d156ayiv9396602012yqt7248787808"><br clear="none">
