Compile LMMS RC4 from source... QMAKE missing?

[harryhaaren]

Hey guys,

Im a music producin person, so im tryin use LMMS to make sum choones, the new version is a great improvement,
(used it on windows) and now i really wanna have it for Linux (Kubuntu of course.. )

I have the source, i have the CXX (g++ compiler) which gave me a load of problems, that works but now when i type

cmake .

(notice the ".") I get an error saying that QT Qmake is not found.. ??
I checked and rechecked the package, i do have it installed i check the dir on my HD (/usr/lib/), and there's 2 folders, qt3 and qt4.

However when i browse trought them two folders (qt3 and qt4) then i cant find a file called "qmake"

Any suggestions??
-Harry
