No, the instructions are more specific than that. Here's the relevant part:
Ubuntu 9.04 AFAIK has Qt 4.5 which would give you those errors.
Have you noticed that every single problem you had can be avoided by reading and following the instructions? 
And don't build from the repo source, that needs Qt 4.7 which hasn't been released. |
I apologize for being an idiot... I did try outside the tree but it didn't work for me, again I must have been doing something wrong. This is the hardest program I've had to compile on Linux in the years I've been using it, it's usually just a ./configure, make, sudo make install. Anyway, sorry for wasting your time but I give up, sigil on Ubuntu 9.04 just is not going to work without major effort (I have no clue if updating Qt would mess up something else). Guess I'll try a virtualbox and install windows just for sigil.
