Hi Gerd,

Which environment variables do you need to change to get it working? If
it's only QTDIR that needs changing, see below for a better fix.

OK

Good

Danger, Will Robinson. When you do this (assuming /opt/qt3.3.2/lib is
placed above /usr/lib/qt3/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf), then every
application that is linked against Qt will now link against your build
of a newer Qt version (i.e. every KDE app). This _may_ work (it's only a
minor upgrade anyway), but I would still recommend against it.

My recommendation is to use the --with-qt-dir option for configure. In
Project Options->Configure Options->Configure arguments try adding:

--with-qt-dir=/opt/qt3.3.2

That should do the trick, and you won't have to worry about QTDIR.

I hope this works for you.
