I'm not sure if this helps, but you could borrow the code from ldglite
for case sensitive filenames. Or at least examine it for ideas. It also
has hooks for MacOS which you should think about since there's a Mac
version of LDView now, right?
Anyhow, I made a quick attempt to build the linux source on my old
Mandrake system. Didn't get too far. I don't think I have QT 3.
But one thing I did notice was the tgz file had the .depend files
in it. You might want to add an rm -f .depend to your clean target
in the Makefiles so they get deleted before you package a release.
I'm such a dummy I didn't realize that was my problem for like 10
minutes.
