Just for reference, I had major problems compiling when I set my QTDIR
environment variable. Configure would work fine, but it would try to link
against my Qt1.44 libraries. I found using the ./configure
--with-qt-includes=<your qt2 headers> --with-qt-lib=<your qt2 libs> works fine
and links correctly. Same goes with KDE headers/libs also. (This is a Mandrake
6.1 system)
