ah, thank you for that. qmake documentation is not installed on my machine.

correct, it's missing all the frontend stuff it seems. (unless my memory is
totally off, the library is organised substantially different from the 3.0
version I upgraded to all these years ago)

yes, the java stuff always needed .. that bit extra.
if I do find the source, I likely will upgrade[*], it's just .. an unwelcome
addition on the ever-increasing todo list.

reasonably smart. it looks for existing symlinks in the compiled and built
s/ware, and generates a shell script which re-creates the links at the end of
the install.
