I'm trying to build "toolbox"--a utility for Blackbox. I'm using newer
source so I'm not using the ports tree for this. (Doin' it the hard
way.) ;-)

Anyway, it keeps bombing-out during make with the following error...

/bin/sh ../libtool --silent --mode=link g++  -O2 -s -o toolbox
-L/usr/X11R6/lib font.o color.o uibox.o menu.o tree.o style.o  toolbox.o
-lqt -lXext -lX11
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot open -lqt: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1

From what I understand (or misunderstand?), "-lqt" tells `ld` to look
for "libqt.a". I looked in /usr/X11R6/lib/ and I sure do NOT have a
libqt.a. I've got a couple of libqt2.so's and a libqxt.a, but no libqt.a.

Is it strange to have a libqt2.so and libqt2.a? I have the qt-2.1.1
package, btw.

So, my question is: how/where to I build/get a "libqt.a" (libqt2.a?) ?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

-Eric
