The version of Qext that worked with CUTE

[Scott Bloom]

Depending on which "QExt" it is, it could be the Serial Port reader package, which has been added to Qt as QSerialPort

There was also a group of guys (I did a bunch with them) about 10 years ago that had a ton of cool Qt extensions. I fixed a bunch of issues in the SMTP connector code. But unfortunately that project died, and no one ever ported to Qt 5.  I cant even find them online anymore.

All,

I knew better than to go down this road, but I wanted to "see" it. Spent the day installing older and older Ubuntu versions in VMs trying to get

https://sourceforge.net/projects/cute/

to build, just to look at it. It appears I need an old Qext package that is not in any of the Ubuntu repositories to make things work. While the last update may say 2013 on SourceForge, it appears the code is Ubuntu
8.04 LTS vintage. If someone could point me to a free to download and use 2008 vintage package of this project I would appreciate it.

Yes, this went way beyond sanity. I admit that. It became one of those "I should be able to make this work" things that inhaled a day.

Thanks,
