Missing Qmake

Recommended Posts

I am trying to install MythTV and require Qmake (Qt v3.2 or higher, but less than Qt v4.0, is required.)

 

The problem is that Qmake seems not to be installed. I have installed Mandriva One to the harddisk from the bootable CD.

 

I have tried various commands (that seem to be suggested for installing MythTV, either from the MythTV website or others who have installed MythTV):

 

Urpmi qt3-mysql qt3-devel

urpmi libqt3-mysql

urpmi libqt3-devel

 

Each attempt responds "The following packages can't be installed because they depend on packages that are older than the installed ones:" and the following are listed:

libxorg-x11-devel-6.9-1.cvs20050915.2mdk

libqt3-devel-3.3.4-23mdk

libxpm4-devel-3.4k-31mdk

 

answering y to Continue resutls in "The package(s) are already installed"

 

urpmi libqt3

 

responds "The package(s) are already installed"

 

The directory /usr/lib/qt3/bin exists but has no qmake listed (using ls), which I think it should from other info I have found.

 

Why isn't qmake installed and how do I install it?

 

PS., I'm a Linux newbie!

Response is:

 

The following packages can't be installed because they depend on packages that are older than the installed one:

libxorg-x11-devel-6.9-1.cvs20050915.2mdk

libqt3-devel-3.3.4-23mdk

libxpm4-devel-3.4k-31mdk

Continue? (Y/n)

 

I answered Y and the response was:

 

The package(s) are already installed

The following package names were assumed: libqt3-devel

 

Still no qmake...

Hi,

 

The problem is solved by installing the package:

 

lsb-build-qt4-devel

 

Then you must run the configure of the MythTV follows:

 

./configure --prefix=/usr --qmake=/usr/bin/qmake_lsb_qt4

 

Hope has been useful.

Forgive my level of English.

 

Greetings.

Sounds like either you've installed some packages from a more recent version of Mandriva than your repositories are currently pointing to, or your repositories don't agree with the version of Mandriva you've got installed.

 

What version of Mandriva are you currently running, and what URLs are your repositories connected to? If you don't know this, try looking at the output of

urpmq --list-url
