Qt build warning: directory '/tmp/qt-stuff-6474/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/lib' following -L not found

Question

I'm trying to get a Qt app compiling for Mac running Snow Leopard, using Qt Creator 2.0.1 and Qt 4.7.0 (64 bit).

The app compiles on other platforms, but on my Mac I get this warning

:: warning: directory '/tmp/qt-stuff-6474/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0/lib' following -L not found

This is a new install of Qt Creator, and the .pro file contains no references to this directory.

What causes this warning, and how might I correct it?

Answer 1

It's only a warning. It's not going to stop the build unless you are using gcc and compiling with '-Werror' (Check your CFLAGS).

Answer 2

This seems to be a glitch in the prebuilt 4.7.0 package for Mac - I see the exact same message. As other people mentioned, it's only a warning - ignore it.
