I'm trying to build Trinity from SVN. I'm still using my old build scripts with
automake. As I have not tested my build environment since last autumn, I wanted to make
one run to ensure everything still works before trying other things. Basically, start with
a known good environment.
According to recent list conversations, building with automake should still work with
distros using older autotools.
Building tqtinterface failed immediately:
============================================
cp: cannot create regular file `admin/libtool.m4.in': No such file or directory
cp: cannot create regular file `admin/ltmain.sh': No such file or directory
make: admin/Makefile.common: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `admin/Makefile.common'. Stop.
============================================
There no longer is an svn admin directory in the tqtinterface sources.
The wiki says "The current SVN tree is being ported to CMake. You cannot build part
of the tree with CMake and then start building with autoconf."
Do I now have to build tqtinterface with cmake? If so, then I according to the wiki I
cannot build the remaining packages with autotools.
I saw nothing obvious in the list archives.

I think that just means that you can't build part of TDE using
autotools and the other part with cmake (as in, a mixed build). But
you should be able to one OR the other, from what I've seen in the
mailing list.
Considering there were no major changes in tqtinterface between 3.5.12
and the svn version, you may be able to grab the 3.5.12 tarball and
use it's admin directory, but I'd suggest waiting for Serghei
(spelling?) (the TDE cmake wizard) to input to let you know if this
will work.
It may also work if the admin directory in 3.5.12 was empty -- just
mkdir it and then generate the autools stuff. I never had a good
chance to explore the TDE sources, so I couldn't tell you if it was
empty or not, though...

Can you point me to the 3.5.12 source tarball? I have looked at the web
site but I couldn't find it

The link is in the left navigation bar near the bottom. Clicking that
will take you to a page with a "What's New" link, links to
installation instructions for Debian, Ubuntu, and Slackware, and a
link to download source tarballs. This is a link to tarballs for each
individual package, with tarballs for the entire source near the
bottom of the page. This is probably a bit cleaner and easier than
looking at an FTP list if you're not used to FTP (most mirrors show
stuff in FTP-style, even if they use HTTP).

Actually this is not really true statement. Few months ago I built kdebase
(with autotools) against kdelibs (build using cmake). Of course, cmake will
not build against autotools, because cmake needs few special helper files
(import files).

You can try. Building using cmake is really simple (and faster as well):
mkdir /tmp/tqt.build
cd /tmp/tqt.build
cmake /path/to/tqt/source \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/tqt
-DWITH_QT3=ON
make
sudo make install
1) Note that out-of-source mode is recommended.
2) Be sure that QTDIR variable environment are set, to avoid troubles while
detecting path to QT
3) Is required patched QT3 (
http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/Qt3 )
Good luck

Noted about qt3.
Does qt3 need to be rebuilt before tqtinterface?
Can tqtinterface only be built now with cmake?
What does "out-of-source mode" mean?

I'm not sure, Tim can confim if dropped autotools suport.

Keeping source tree separate from binaries tree (make is run out of source
tree).

Nope, as far I know, qt3 do not broke backward compatibility.
