Hi Tom,

You must be using make with the -j<some number> flag. Apparently there is
some problem with the dependencies. The dependency of the other c++ file
on this headerfile is not properly configured in the Makefiles. Try a
remake without the -j option.

I've had these errors as well in some other places but it looks that it is
always the case when a headerfile is generated from a .ui file. Maybe some
more magic in the configure and make -f Makefile.cvs is needed.

Otto
