I'm trying to build the 3.5.13 packages from the tarballs. I keep seeing the following error: checking for Qt... checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 4.3 and < 5.0) (library QtCore -lQtGui -lQtNetwork -ltqt-mt) not found. Please check your installation! I looked at the logs, configure, etc., but I don't see anything obvious. What is the magic trick?

tarballs. I keep /usr/bin/pkg-config (library QtCore -lQtGui installation! anything You probably built the Qt4 tqtinterface. My build script includes -DWITH_QT3=1 which tells tqtinterface to use Qt3 instead.

According to config.log the autoconf system is too dumb to read the tqt include dirs from the tqt.pc file, whereas the CMake build system gets it right. And since the tqt test is supposed to fail iff the tqtinterface is the Qt4 one, configure wrongly assumes tqt is tqt4 and searches for Qt4.

In addition of the custom commands, the patch I attached was necessary to successfully build kdegames (with the builds commands I used the DEBUG was probably set to NULL, which makes the comparison DEBUG >= 2 not compile).

No, I tried on a 32-bit Slackware 13.1 with the 64-bit 2.6.33.4 kernel from Slackware64 13.1. But I didn't remove any L-series package other than Qt4, it must explain the differences between our results :) I currently dual-boot Slackware 13.1 (with Trinity as main desktop) and Slackware64 13.37 (with KDE4 as main desktop), but with only 64-bit kernels. I did partial builds of Trinity on both systems, and except for the broken 13.37 libical, I didn't see actual differences between 13.1 and 13.37 in terms of building the dependencies, kdebase, kdelibs and kdepim (which are the only packages I built on 13.37); but I won't be able to build full Trinity in 13.37 because it is my KDE4 system, from which I won't remove KDE4 packages. > > I hope to try building in a 13.37 virtual machine.

I haven't had any problems building after I removed QT4 and most KDE4 packages. I intend to make another full run at building the packages to ensure there are no problems. I think you are using 13.37 where I am using 13.1. I wonder whether there are subtle differences that cause the errors you see? I hope to try building in a 13.37 virtual machine. Darrell
