[Paraview] problem compiling Qt 4.6.2 (Ubuntu / Mint)

[Herbert J. MUTHSAM]

Hi,

when trying to install Qt 4.6.2 for later on compiling Paraview I seem
to run in a problem with qcups (error messages at the end).

OS Ubuntu 12.04 (rather Linux Mint Maya) 64 bit
according to the synaptic package manager anything it list when entering
cups is up to date, as is the system.

Out of a few messages in the internet which seem related I could not
really make a sense.

The error messages are these:
