I need to make some changes to Qt 4.7.1, so I need to add

  • 0

I need to make some changes to Qt 4.7.1, so I need to add it to my subversion server to track my changes. However, once it’s added, the configure script fails. I’m guessing it’s choking on the .svn files.

I’m using Windows. Is there any way to add Qt to subversion, delete all the .svn folders, configure and build it, recreate the .svn folders, and then submit my changes?

Or is there any other work around? The error I get is ‘Couldn’t update default mkspec’

    The problem is if .svn folders exist in /mkspecs/default and /mkspecs-win32-msvc2008 then configure fails to run with the error ‘Couldn’t update default mkspec’

    If I move the .svn folders, configure, then replace them, I can then build.
