in thread Perl QtCore4 won't install

Thanks daxim. I'm not sure I understand how qtcore4-0.99.0 is an older version than qtcore4-0.96.0. Or were you referring to another library? I have installed the debian packages (libqt4-dev, libsmokeqt4-dev) and loads more I have qt 4.8.2 installed. From here when I try

 cpan QtCore4

it tries to build smokeqt I think, and fails here:
