Qt for X11 RequirementsQtGui Dependencies
The QtGui module and the QtCore module, which provides the non-GUI features required by QtGui, depend on the libraries described in the following table. To build Qt from its source code, you will also need to install the development packages for these libraries for your system.
Note: You must compile with XRender support to get alpha transparency support for pixmaps and images. Development packages for these libraries contain header files that are used when building Qt from its source code. On Debian-based GNU/Linux systems, for example, we recommend that you install the following development packages:
Some of these packages depend on others in this list, so installing one may cause others to be automatically installed. Other distributions may provide system packages with similar names. OpenGL DependenciesThe configure script will autodetect if OpenGL headers and libraries are installed on your system, and if so, it will include the QtOpenGL module in the Qt library. If your OpenGL headers or libraries are placed in a non-standard directory, you may need to change the QMAKE_INCDIR_OPENGL and/or QMAKE_LIBDIR_OPENGL in the config file for your system. The QGL documentation assumes that you are familiar with OpenGL programming. If you're new to the subject a good starting point is http://www.opengl.org/. Phonon DependenciesAs described in the Phonon Overview, Phonon uses the GStreamer multimedia framework as the backend for audio and video playback on X11. The minimum required version of GStreamer is 0.10. To build Phonon, you need the GStreamer library, base plugins, and development files for your system. The package names for GStreamer vary between Linux distributions; try searching for gstreamer or libgstreamer in your distribution's package repository to find suitable packages. QtWebKit DependenciesQtWebKit depends on some extra development tools in addition to those required for the rest of Qt. Note: These dependencies are only needed if you use a source version of Qt. They are not required when using a prebuilt library.
These should be available in most major Linux distributions, but the exact install instructions will vary. For the most up to date information about QtWebKit dependencies, please refer to the QtWebKit wiki for Linux See also Known Issues. |
