[bt-devel] FreeBSD compile failure

[Martin Gruner]

Hello Bob,

I am no expert. But i guess your system has qt2 installed in /usr/X11R6/qt2, 
configure finds the headers correctly.
Try
configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/X11R6/qt2

There is obviously a but in the configure script, because it does not check 
for this dir, instead it checks for /usr/lib/X11R6/lib twice.
You can also try --with-qt-libs.

hth, blessings,

Marin
