I am sorry I could not understand that. Where should I specify the --qmake
flag ? At the risk of appearing foolish is this what you meant -
qmake --qmake=/usr/local/Trolltec/Qt-4.8.7/bin
I just tried this on a tcsh and got this error
qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such
file or directory
Regarding Qt 4 yes I am aware it is no longer supported but I plan to use
Py Qt with Mayavi and I was told that Py Q 5 is not supported by Mayavi
(please correct me if I am wrong)
