Hello Dmitriy,

I also had big problems getting pased the qt configure stage !!

I can confirm that you need qt 1.42 (or 1.44 etc) NOT qt 2.

However this is not the only problem !

Kdevelop seems very flakey when it comes to having certain libraries installed.
I received numerous replies relating to setting the QTDIR environment
parameter (export QTDIR=/usr/include/qt) and other similar environment
parameters (LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/qt/lib and
CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/qt). None of these ideas worked !

Eventually Mandrake released a new version of gcc (which included a file called
gcc-cpp which replaced cpp) and a new version of libstdc++ which I installed.

Kdevelop suddenly started working, and I was STILL using the same qt !!!! -
therefore qt may have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the problem you are
experiencing ! Please persist in your search, but think laterally.

I am now stuck because Kdevelop informs me that I have not set up the KDE
headers in the setup program. I can't find exactly where I was supposed to
enter this mysterious path ! Moreover it is such an important path why isn't it
a show stopper in the setup program !

To be frank, I am at the point of giving up with Kdevelop and start waiting for
the Borland tools sometime next year !!! I am begining to beleive that all
these success stories are made up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
