So I installed qmake from the ports collection, ran configure on said application and then tried running qmake on application and got this "QMAKESPEC has not been set, so configuration cannot be deduced." So after googling a bit I figured it was a simple matter of export QMAKESPEC="freebsd-g++" Then I tried running qmake again and got this: 14:59:28-liontaur@liontaur:~/boinc$qmake 15:00:27-liontaur@liontaur:~/boinc$ I figured I should at least get some kind of output to stdout so I tried "qmake -makefile" and still got nothing. Then I tried "qmake -makefile Makefile" and got a whole whack of "Makefile:452: Unknown test function: $" (with the line number increasing) and then some "WARNING: Failure to find:" for a whole bunch of files. So then I figured that it was just that configure didn't make the Makefile qmake friendly but I couldn't find anything relevant in the help... Now i'm just stuck! Any suggestions folks? Thanks! Mark
