[Paraview] problems building paraview from source

Make sure that the qmake program associated with the Qt 4.3 version is the first in your path.  Also make sure that you do a clean build (i.e. delete your binary directory and start over again).

Well,
I installed QT 4.3 now (with MinGW) and then I tried to build Paraview with the "MinGW Makefiles" -Option when it asks for the compiler, but still, the same problem originates:

"QMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:89 (Message): Qt 4.3.0 or greater not found. Please check the QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE variable. "

Here is the part of CMakeLists.txt which posts the error:

  # ParaView requires this minimum version of Qt, and let's do it here before
  # our first call to FindQt4.cmake
  SET(QT_MIN_VERSION "4.3.0")
  SET(QT_REQUIRED TRUE)
  FIND_PACKAGE(Qt4)
  IF(NOT QT4_FOUND)
    MESSAGE(SEND_ERROR "Qt ${QT_MIN_VERSION} or greater not found.  Please check the QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE variable.")
  ELSE(NOT QT4_FOUND)
    # don't go greater than supported version
    STRING(REGEX MATCH "^4\\.3\\.[0-9]+" qt_version_tmp "${QTVERSION}")

Do you have any ideas what to try next?

thx,
Natalie
