 Hi Xu,

 My guess is that the QTDIR variable is not being seen by qsa. Instead of
appending it to your configure command, try setting it externally. For
example, in your terminal, enter the following two lines
 QTDIR="/usr/share/qt3"
 export QTDIR

 Then instead of running ./configure QTDIR=/usr/share/qt3
--enable-portability-flags=no
 run simply ./configure

 Hopefully that will take care of the other error as well.

 Pasted below are the previous posts. Sorry for the ugly paste (I copied
from the archives because I just signed up).

 Best,

       Could you try the current CVS version and use
--enable-poratability-flags=no
       as configure parameter.

       Michal,

       Please note that my logfile was too large and thus it is
pending approval.
       In the meantime, I will paste the message in that email below
and send an
       email to your gmail with the log.

       Thank you for the quick reply. I receive the same error.
Attached is my log
       file.

       I clicked on "Download GNU Tarball" from here:
       http://pdfedit.cvs.sourceforge.net/pdfedit/ [2]

       I then ran the commands and received the output in pdfedit.log

       Here was my configure command:
       ./configure QTDIR=/usr/share/qt3 --enable-portability-flags=no

       Should I use qt3 or qt4? I get the error with both.

       Thank you,

       Xu Wang

       This should be the current CVS snapshot.

       This is strange because I do not see any compilation error in
the log.
       There are 2 errors:
       Using qmake: /usr/share/qt3/bin/qmake
       make[1]: ***
[/home/xuwang/source-builds/pdfedits/1/pdfedit/pdfedit/src/qsa/Makefile.qsa]

       make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/xuwang/source-builds/pdfedits/1/pdfedit/pdfedit/src'
       make: *** [source] Error 2

       The first one looks like a qmake issue when it is not able to
create
       src/qsa/Makefile.qsa for some reason which is not obvious from
the log.
       The second one is probably just a result of the first failure.
       Please note that we are using parallel building so the
compilation
       continues even if there is an error in other branch of
execution.

       I would try to go into src directory and
       make qsa

       It will most probably fails but it would be interesting to see
       why. Check out whether src/qsa/Makefile.qsa has been created.
If not
       then try to tweak src/qsa/configure script to print something
useful.

       qt3.
