This is part of the ZIP distribution of the Qt toolkit for OS/2.

This package contains all runtime Qt libraries necessary to run Qt-based
applications.

This file contains installation instructions for this package. For more
information about the Qt toolkit for OS/2, please visit the project page at

  http://svn.netlabs.org/qt4/wiki



BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Please note that it is recommended to install Qt from the RPM repositories.
This will allow you to always have an up-to-date version of Qt installed on
your machine including all its requirements. If you have RPM already installed
and need the Qt runtime for an application that is also in RPM repositories,
simply type the following on the command line:

  yum install <application>

where <application> is the name of that application. All the required Qt
libraries will be installed automatically.

If you want to only install the Qt runtime itself (for example, to use it with
an application not available in RPM repositories), type the following:

  yum install qt qt-pm
