Configuring QGIS the Right Way

To see the configure options available, change the the QGIS directory and enter:

    ./configure --help

Among other options, there are three that are important to the success of the build:

    --with-qtdir=DIR              Qt installation directory default=$QTDIR
    --with-gdal=path/gdal-config  Full path to 'gdal-config' script,
                                  e.g. '--with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config'
    --with-pg=path/pg_config      PostgreSQL (PostGIS) Support
                                 (full path to pg_config)
     --with-grass=DIR             GRASS Support (full path to GRASS binary package)
