Attempts at incorporating the QML GUI into Navit

These are my notes when attempting to get the QML GUI working. To be used when writing a proper wiki page about it...

System

Acer One netbook, 160GB HDD, 1GB RAM, Intel Atom processor.
Ubuntu 9.10
latest Navit from SVN

Step 1 - Installing Qt

Finding and downloading

• Trying to find Qt 4.7 in package manager: Not found.
• Trying to find it online: found source (tech-pre-release) at http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0-tp.tar.gz (~170MB)
• Un-gzipping: ~ 1 minute

Configuring

Using instructions from http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/install-x11.html. In a terminal:

cd ~/src/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0-tp/
./configure

• During configure:
  • Asks what type to use: Commercial or Open Source. Selected Open Source ('o')
  • Asks to accept licence: Chose 'yes'
• Configuring... took ~14 minutes

Making and Installing

In terminal:

make

• Making... is taking >5hrs (I'm not joking!) and it's still going...
