Re: [orca-list] qt accessibility and archlinux

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
I was also playing with qt4config trying to make cmake aware of the 
lib32-qt4 on arch however here is another detailed post on this:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=133403

Now I am afraid this is not doable the standard way. Two dirty solutions 
come to my mind.
Try to recompile lib32-qt4 arch linux package with qt-at-spi sources 
mixed into it as a git submodule, or compile qt-at-spi on a 32 bit arch 
linux host and making binary package with lib32-qt-at-spi available.

Greetings

Peter
