[Fwbuilder-discussion] 2.0 Build failure with latest version

[Dagmar d'S. <evi...@co...>]

Okay.  So I grabbed the latest version of 2.0, the library components of
which built without a hitch.  I then installed QT-3.3.2 system-wide (as
in, into /usr/bin, /usr/include and so on, see BLFS 5.1 for more
details) which is a perfectly reasonable way of doing it.  The frontend
package flatly refuses to build this way because it's apparently not
propagating the QTDIR variable down into the subdirs at _all_.

Compiler output...

g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -g -Wno-unused-parameter -D_REENTRANT  -
DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -I/usr/share/qt/mkspecs/default -I. -I../.. -
I../../../../include/fwb-2.0 -I../../../../include/libxml2 -I/include -

../common/init.cpp: In function `std::string guessExecPath(const
char*)':
../common/init.cpp:30: error: `QString' undeclared (first use this
function)
...

Note well the -I/include in there.  There's apparently null at that
point for QTDIR, this is with it failing to autodetect, with me
compensating for it failing to autodetect in the configure script by
creating a /usr/lib/qt3 and making symlinks in there so it appears as /
usr/lib/qt3/include, and with me attempting to forcibly set QTDIR with
--with-qtdir=/usr/lib/qt3/ passed to configure.

Any ideas of an easy way to fix this?  Specifically to fix why QTDIR
isn't being passed to the sub-makes...  I can't seem to get the autoconf
to regenerate the configure files properly (don't know which version it
wants, can't seem to get any of the three I have to work) so I can't do
much to it.
