HOW TO install / upgrade to Qt 4.6.2
I had to reflash about 3 weeks ago and qt 4.6.2 had been removed from extras devil so ive been missing a few important qt apps i.ve used daily.
I would understand if qt 4.6 was removed because the PR 1.2 was near but its been nearly a month now so i had to take measures.
For those who need Qt 4.6.2 here is a small tutorial /.how to
.
Typical noob warnings apply
(if you haven't used the terminal now its time to learn)
- You find the Qt 4.6 deb packages here
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae...ree/q/qt4-x11/
- download what you need, manually place the to mydocs/downloads or anywhere you like
ATTENCION:
Dont download the files with dbg if you only need to install apps.
And remember to check you have qt 4.6.2 in the file name and that the file ends with ...armel.deb
- open the x-term terminal
- type (you need rootsh for this):
sudo gainroot (enter)
-then navigate to where you files are
etc.
cd /MyDocs/Downloads (typing just cd and enter gets you to your user root)
ls (lists you the files in the directory)
- copy the libqt4...blaablaablaa.deb (blaablaa filled with the filename)
from the list ls-command showed you.
- type
dpkg -i (paste here the filename.deb)
now the package gets installed. there might be a dependency problem butyou just need to install the reported dependencies first
VOILA!
Go to App Manager and install the Qt apps you've been missing.
