==============================

Kevin,
Not sure with the Mac, as I have not gotten to play with the new OS X 
stuff, but if you are compiling using a shell as we do in Linux, then 
set the path to your QT there.

Our steps are usually this:
export QTDIR=/path/to/QT

This only works while in that shell, not in all other opened 
shells/konsoles.  If you close that konsole/shell, then you will have to 
issue the command again.

Hope that is helpful to you.
