Problem: Compiling kernel: -lqt not found: qt not equal qt-mt?

[thewade]

Abstract:
   I cannot compile kernel linux-2.6.8-1.521 (fc2) on AMD 64 laptop
   because compiler cannot find -lqt.
   
Description:
   Ihave a AMD64 laptop and Im trying to rebuild the FC2 2.6.8 kernel but
   build cant find -lqt.
   Is it because its 64 bit or named qt-mt?
   
   I think ld finds -lqt because if I rin ldconfig -p | grep qt I get
   
   libqui.so.1 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/lib/libqui.so.1
   libqui.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/lib/libqui.so
   libqtmcop.so.1 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/libqtmcop.so.1
   libqt-mt.so.3 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3
   libqt-mt.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/lib/libqt-mt.so
   
   and libqt-mt is the same as libqt, just a newer version?

Support:
   My ld.so.conf looks like this:
   include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
   /usr/X11R6/lib  
   /usr/X11R6/lib64
   /usr/lib64
   /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/lib
   
   my LD_LIBRARY_PATH is
/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/lib:/usr/local/lib64:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib64:/usr/lib:$
   
   Ive run ldconfig with this configuration.

You need qt-devel I think.
But why not using 'make menuconfig', then you do not need qt.
make gconfig is also an option - uses gtk.
