    Hi and welcome to devnet,

    You are missing the development packages related to XLib

        You can either use Ubuntu's graphical package manager or the command line and apt-get

          Oh, sorry, no, I meant what is the name of the package to install... sorry, but I can't find xlib in the packages list in synaptic :(

              Ok, I've found it! Now I have a different error message: it says that there is no operation to execute as "first":

              @Creating qmake. Please wait...
              make: Nessuna operazione da eseguire per "first".
              Basic XLib functionality test failed!
              You might need to modify the include and library search paths by editing
              QMAKE_INCDIR_X11 and QMAKE_LIBDIR_X11 in /home/sara/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5/mkspecs/linux-g++.@

              thanks again!

                You still have the test failing, please, run configure with -v to see what exactly is missing. X11 uses several libs

                  It doesn't seem to encounter any error in the configuring process: this is what it says with the -v option

                  @Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'make'.
                  Once everything is built, you must run 'make install'.
                  Qt will be installed into /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.5

                  To reconfigure, run 'make confclean' and 'configure'.@

                  Thanks again for your help!

                    You're welcome !

                    Since you have it compiling now, please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

                      Well, I'm afraid it is not over: when I give the make command, it still gives me an error... :(

                        You are missing the libxrender-dev package

                          I thank you again, also because I'm starting to feel a bit discouraged. Isn't there a place where I could find all the necessary packages for compiling the library? I'm afraid I'm stealing you a lot of time! :( After installing the libxrender-dev package, this is the error :(

                            This is strange, what I would suggest is to first read "this":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/requirements-x11.html you should install the requirement listed (no need to compile anything, just get the packages)

                            Then start clean. If you configured Qt directly in the sources you need to make a confclean (or if you want to be really sure it's clean delete the folder and start from a fresh one) However, I would recommend using an out of source build.

                              Ok, the list of the requirements was precious: I've eliminated all the old files and started from scratch and I finally managed it!
                              Thank you very much for your patience and for your precious advices!
