Hi,

as far as I can see, you needn't compile KDevelop ( Ralf, stop laughing :-) 
). The problem with Red Hat 6.2 is, that it is prepared for Qt 2.x, so you 
have the v2 libs and the v1 compatibilty libs on your system. By default 
QTDIR points to the version 2 libs. You can change that in 
/etc/profile.d/qt.sh . However, if you intend to develop for Qt 2.x or use 
KDE 2 or KDevelop 2 you must  download the latest Qt libs, because the ones 
that shipped with RH 6.2 are the beta versions and won't work. If you 
change the file I told you, everything should work fine because I made and 
tested the KDK and KDevelop RPMs on my RH 6.2 system. Should you run into 
trouble after you changed it, there's probably something else missing on 
your system. Maybe you didn't install the qt 1.45 libs?

Greetings,

Ralf
