Compiling qt4.7.3, make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

[myfeing]

i follow the instruction of installation for x11 platform, no error report when i run ./configure, but make print the msg: "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop."

i can compile the apache, php successfully on the ubuntu 10.x

You should probably post the commands with the complete parameter list as you use.

I don't remember what the manual said about compiling instructions, but... have you executed qmake before running make? I think that command will generate the Makefile that is not being found...

i have installed, x11 dev package should be installed before run ./configure. i recommand to check the items on http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/requirements-x11.html

qmake is for the qt application, not for the qt installation.

I have to admit that I do not remember either :-(
I have just followed the instruction as given. There was nothing special about it.

I guess it is make under linux. But by checking I saw that the last version I bothered to compile was 4.7.2.

I'd try the following:

• Unzip to new folder
• Enter folder
• run ./configure
• run qmake
• run make
• wait
• bneq $finished, wait //this one is just the freaky joke of the day :)

Hi myfeing

out of curiosity did you use the .zip or the .tar.gz archive for installation?
