Build and install PerlQt

Note: you need to start a new shell if you just installed the qt development libraries

% mkdir -p /project/software/library; cd /project/software/library

The source code for PerlQt is maintained primarily in KDE's git repo. 
Downloading the code from there is the latest development version. 
In KDE, smokegen and smokeqt into multiple submodules, so if you 
are building from the KDE sources, you need to download and install 
smokegen and smokeqt separately (assuming no binary packages are 
available from your distro). To build from KDE sources, you would do this:
 
Download the required sources from the KDE git repositories:
 
% git clone git://anongit.kde.org/smokegen
% git clone git://anongit.kde.org/smokeqt
% git clone git://anongit.kde.org/perlqt
 
Build smokegen:
 
% cd smokegen
% mkdir build; cd build;
% cmake ..
% make
% make install
% cd ../..
 
Build QImageBlitz:
 
% wget http://download.kde.org/stable/qimageblitz/qimageblitz-0.0.6.tar.bz2
% tar -xvjf qimageblitz-0.0.6.tar.bz2
% cd qimageblitz-0.0.6
% mkdir build; cd build;
% cmake ..
% make -j8
% sudo make install
 
Build Qwt-6.1.0:
 
% wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/qwt/qwt/6.1.0/qwt-6.1.0.tar.bz2
% tar -xvjf qwt-6.1.0.tar.bz2
% cd qwt-6.1.0
 
% gedit qwtconfig.pri
 
Change the installation prefix to /usr/local
 
unix {
    QWT_INSTALL_PREFIX = /usr/local
}
 
Build the Qwt library:
 
% mkdir build; cd build;
% qmake-qt4  ../qwt.pro
% make -j8
% sudo make install
 
% export QWT_ROOT=/usr/local
% export LD_LIBRARY=/usr/local/lib

Build QScintilla:
 
% wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyqt/files/QScintilla2/QScintilla-2.8.3/QScintilla-gpl-2.8.3.tar.gz
% tar -xvf QScintilla-gpl-2.8.3.tar.gz
% cd QScintilla-gpl-2.8.3
% mkdir build; cd build;
% qmake ../Qt4Qt5/qscintilla.pro
% make -j8
% sudo make install
 
Build smokeqt	

% cd smokeqt
% mkdir build; cd build;
% ccmake -Wno-dev ..
 
Set the following cmake configuration options:
 
Qwt5_Qt3_TENTATIVE_LIBRARY /usr/local/lib/libqwt.so
Qwt5_Qt4_TENTATIVE_LIBRARY /usr/local/lib/libqwt.so
WITH_Phonon                ON
WITH_QImageBlitz           ON
WITH_QScintilla            ON
WITH_QT3_SUPPORT           ON
WITH_Qwt5                  ON
 
% make -j8
% sudo make install
% cd ../..
 
Build perlqt4:
 
% cd perlqt
 
Fix a bug in the CMakeLists.txt files that incorrectly specifies a wrong install path, by applying the following patch:
 
diff --git a/CMakeLists.txt b/CMakeLists.txt

% ccmake ..
