[webkit-qt] Trouble building QtWebKit

[Srinath Avadhanula]

Hi,

I am trying to build QtWebKit from the webkit.org sources by following the
instructions at:

http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingQtOnLinux

I wanted to build it against Qt 4.7.2 which I just downloaded from
qt.nokia.com.

Towards the end of the build, I am getting errors when it is trying to build
some tests:

make[2]: Entering directory
`/local/savadhan/tmp/webkit/WebKitBuild/Release/WebKit/qt/tests/qwebframe'
g++ -m64 -Wl,-O1

`QWebElement::operator=(QWebElement const&)'
tst_qwebframe.cpp:(.text+0x2251): undefined reference to

I have set:

QTDIR=/local/savadhan/QtSDK/Desktop/Qt/472/gcc
QMAKESPEC=$QTDIR/mkspecs/linux-g++-64
PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH

I am using a 64 bit debian 5 machine.

I have never built Qt or WebKit before, so excuse me if I am doing something
obviously foolish :)

Another somewhat strange thing is that I see the following .so files in the
WebKitBuild/Release/lib directory:

libQtWebKit.so  libQtWebKit.so.4  libQtWebKit.so.4.9  libQtWebKit.so.4.9.0

I would have thought that since I am using Qt 4.7.2, the QtWebKit version
would also be 4.7.2 instead of 4.9.0...

Kind regards,
Srinath
