Summary0012547: FindQt4 fails to find QtCore lib
DescriptionFindQt4 uses QT_LIBINFIX (from qconfig.pri) to locate libraries,
but under Ubuntu qconfig.pri reports QT_LIBINFIX as empty (has no value).

So, FindQt4 cannot locate the QtCore library, named as:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4.7
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4.7.4

So, this fails:

FIND_LIBRARY(QT_QTCORE_LIBRARY_RELEASE
             NAMES QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX} QtCore${QT_LIBINFIX}4
             HINTS ${QT_LIBRARY_DIR_TMP}
)
TagsNo tags attached.

 QT_LIBINFIX is supposed to be empty in your case.
What cmake is looking for is libQtCore.so
Where is that? Did you install the dev package for that?

 Looks like the Debian multiarch stuff: http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch [^]

 What does "qmake-qt4 -query" give? (or just qmake if you don't have qmake-qt4)

 You don't have /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so ?
If it is not there, where is it? With the info given so far, I can only suspect an incomplete Qt installation.

To clarify the original confusion, the QT_LIBINFIX is for custom builds of Qt with modifies library names such as libQtCore-mysuffix.so.

 As I have written in my original post, only these files exist:

/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4.7
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4.7.4

There is no file /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.

Should one exist?

 So you are missing the QtCore development package.

 There is no such package in ubuntu 11.10. I have spend a few hours searching for one. Do you know how it is called?

 I have looked also in my Fedora 15, and there the libs are:

[petasis@localhost ~]$ locate libQtCore
/usr/lib/libQtCore.prl
/usr/lib/libQtCore.so
/usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4
/usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4.7
/usr/lib/libQtCore.so.4.7.4

So, I suppose you are correct that something is missing in Ubuntu.

And searching through google showed that Qt is a recent addition in Ubuntu, and no references for a devel package.
Perhaps Ubuntu does not provide a devel package for Qt?

 But regarding this bug, perhaps it is not a CMake bug after all. Just an Ubuntu problem...

 The package is libqt4-dev

See here for details:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/libqt4-dev [^]
In the list of files, it shows that package installs
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so

 Thanks for the package name. After installing libqt4-dev, FindQt4.cmake works.

Strangely enough, searching fro qt4-dev, qt4-devel, etc., shows nothing in software center. Only if I search for libqt4-dev it does show up...

Thanks for your help.
