[mythtv-users] Trouble Compiling MythTV-0.10 on RedHat 9.0

I've been struggling to get mythtv-0.10 installed over the past few 
days.  I've read/searched the documentation and haven't found anything 
relating to the problem I'm having.

My system is as follows:
RedHat 9.0 (kernel 2.4.20-8)
Duron 800 on VT82C686 [Apollo Super South] Motherboard
NVidia Geforce 4 MX440-8X AGP
BT878 Video Capture Card

I manually installed all of the perl modules required for xmltv, then 
compiled and installed xmltv-0.5.14 (not building CVS just yet)

I think my problem has to do with qt-3.1 on RedHat 9, and maybe 
something with g++.  Here is what I have installed for qt on redaht...

[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# rpm -qa | grep qt
qtcups-devel-2.0-15
qt-devel-3.1.1-6
qt-MySQL-3.1.1-6
qt-designer-3.1.1-6
qt-ODBC-3.1.1-6
qt-3.1.1-6
qtcups-2.0-15
qt-Xt-3.1.1-6

I unpacked mythtv-0.10 to /usr/src/mythtv-0.10
When I run ./configure it outputs:
[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# ./configure
Please note that these settings only deal with libavcodec, not MythTV.
CPU              x86
Big Endian       no
MMX enabled      yes
Vector Builtins  yes
lcdproc support   no
Creating config.mak and config.h

When I run 'make', I get:
[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# make
make: *** No rule to make target 
`/usr/lib/qt3-1/mkspecs/linux-g++/qmake.conf',
needed by `Makefile'.  Stop.

A quick look in the 'troubleshooting' indicated my qt is broken, so I 
create the recommended symbolic link:
[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# cd /usr/lib/qt-3.1/mkspecs
[root at localhost mkspecs]# ln -sf linux-g++ default

Return to /usr/src/mythtv-0.10 and re-run 'make':
[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# make
make: *** No rule to make target 
`/usr/lib/qt3-1/mkspecs/linux-g++/qmake.conf',
needed by `Makefile'.  Stop.

Argh... execute /sbin/ldconfig... retry 'make'.. same error.  So then I 
try the other *non-recommended* workaround:
[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# qmake mythtv.pro

Now... when I 'make'... it starts to compile, but dies a ways into the 
process (not sure how much of this is useful so I cut out much of the 
successful stuff):

Though the compiler gripes:

dialogbox.cpp:9:26: qapplication.h: No such file or directory

... all of those files are in /usr/lib/qt-3.1/include ...

I've set $QTDIR for my setup:
[root at localhost mythtv-0.10]# echo $QTDIR
/usr/lib/qt3-1

I've tried to make sure all libraries are in /etc/ld.so.conf...
[root at localhost include]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/sane
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/include

I'm very confused at this point.  Can anyone offer any help???  It seems 
the gcc stuff is successful, but when g++ tries to compile it fails. 
Seems that all required packages/libraries are in place.

Sorry for the long post,
Chris
