Perhaps "The Trouble with Linux" would have been more appropriate after all. After installing qt, QtCreator, KDevelop and the latest version of gcc++, I'm *still* missing "make"? I can't see how that can even be possible, but when I get home tonight, I'll go searching in YaST for "make" and see what turns up.

Thanks.

Btw, can anyone clarify for me the differences between qmake, cmake and make?

CMake - It's like Autotools (Autohell)
QMake - Simplifed version of CMake/Autohell
g/make - actually does the building (reads makefile's and processes the commands)

CMake and QMake (build tools)

I use CMake because it's very beautiful and easy to use (depending on what you need CMake to do). KDE requires CMake to build it's applications. You can do platform checks/header checks/testing/creating projects files for IDE's etc.

QMake is only good for simple projects IMHO. Because you can easily just do "qmake -project; qmake; make" and have the application build. But if you need anything more complex you will need Autohell or CMake. Autotools is harder to work with (hence why it's called Autohell) and it's less cross platform usable.
