When I run make (after running qmake) I get the following error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQtGui
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQtCore

In synaptic it shows that I have installed libqtcore4 and libqtgui4.

There is no such directory as /usr/bin/ld.

Basically, I’ve installed the QtSDK, and QtCreator seems to work fine in that it can build the hello world program. But I want to be able to work from the CLI and run make. I suspect that I may need to redirect the make program to look elsewhere for QtGui and QtCore. If so, how do I find out where those libraries are? I’m running Ubuntu 12.04 and I’ve followed the advice of this page http://www.qtforum.org/article/28081/installing-qt-4-5-2-on-linux.html down to the last section where it talks about libraries. Any suggestions?

    Install Qt using apt-get

    sudo apt-get install libqt4-core libqt4-gui

    or if you want everything

    sudo apt-get install libqt4-*
