Hello,
I am wondering about including Qt Libraries with an app I've created for
Linux. When I download the Qt 4.6 SDK (32-bit) for linux, there are two
different sets of libraries, one much larger than the other. I'm wondering
what is the difference between them and which one it would be better to
include with an executable. For example for the new 4.6 SDK here are the
files for QtCore:
3197172 lib/libQtCore.so.4.6.0*
22295163 qt/lib/libQtCore.so.4.6.0*
I'm wondering if the larger library also includes all the other libraries
Qt needs compiled in as well (freetype, etc.). What versions of the
various other libraries are these libraries compiled against? If I have a
Qt app that is only dependant on Qt, will including one of these libraries
be sufficient for my app even if other required libraries (freetype, etc.)
are out of date or not present on the target system? If the app is closed
source and based on the LGPL, is it ok to include either of these
libraries? Thanks for any/all information.
Josh
