[Qt-interest] problems with ./configure

You might be missing the dev package. Eg.  libXext-dev

Thanks Sean,
here is what I found after running ./configure  -verbose

........
X11 headers look good.
XLib auto-detection... ()
g++ -c -pipe -O2 -Wall -W  -I../../../mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -o xlib.o xlib.cpp
g++ -Wl,-O1 -o xlib xlib.o    -L/usr/X11R6/lib  -lXext -lX11 -lm
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake: *** [xlib] Error 1
XLib disabled.
Basic XLib functionality test failed!
.........

from this I can see that Xext is the  missing library......
first what I downloaded on my system is libXext in /usr/lib which I suppose is the same as lXext ,(which still does not stop the error)
secondly I 'm trying to see if there is a package by that name (lXext), maybe that is what I should install
