Qt 1.40 was "accidentally" released with older Makefiles which broke on fbsd (aout and elf). Qt 1.41 was recently released, and _still_ uses an aout specific method for building shared libs (it depends on /usr/lib/c++rt0.o). I was kindly told that FreeBSD compatibility was not important when I reported this to them ages ago. AFAIK the Qt 1.4x port hasn't been updated. FWIW, I've built Qt ELF many times over (gotta love egcs). - alex | "Contrary to popular belief, penguins are not the salvation of modern | | technology.
