That, coupled with the
RunningFromSource page on Sigil's Wiki should provide a pretty solid foundation for experimentation.
If you compile your own Qt 4.8 libs on an older version of Ubuntu, I recommend using
update-alternatives to manage all the symbolic links to the various versions of qmake you might want to use to build projects with. In situations where Qt-4.8 isn't the system-wide Qt installed/configured you will have to (after successful compilation/install) create a custom launch script that adds the Qt-4.8 libs location to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable before launching Sigil. Very similar to what the sigil.sh script did in the older Sigil versions on Linux. Something as simple as:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
QTLIB_DIR="/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.2-64bit/lib"
if [ -z "$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$QTLIB_DIR"
else
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$QTLIB_DIR:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
fi
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec sigil-real "$@"
Where sigil-real is the actual sigil executable.
