title: How to install Qt 3.3.8 in Ubuntu 14.04
body: <p>Just recently I have begun to review the code for a project produced by a friend roughly 4 years ago. However, to compile this project I need an outdated version of <code>Qt (version 3.3.8)</code>. Much of the code used in this project isn't supported in the same style as <code>Qt4</code>. So I'd first like to obtain <code>Qt3</code> before I transition to <code>Qt4</code>. </p>
  
  <p>Ubuntu has decided to no longer carry <code>"qt3-dev-tools"</code>. Ubuntu has limited the selection to <code>"qt4-dev-tools"</code> in its repository. So installing via the command line option (<code>sudo apt-get install qt3-dev-tools</code>) results in an error: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Unable to locate package qt3-dev-tools."</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>So, from here I did some digging for a manual installation? I found a great website to help me through the process, but I'm not very knowledgeable about Ubuntu, or Linux in general. Step 1 was simple. But step 2 and onward stumped me. I'm supposed to be both adding the environment variables listed in step two to the <code>.profile</code> file and then setting them, correct? </p>
  
  <p>In step 2, is logging in again just meant for users with the <code>.login</code> shell? When I type in <code>$HOME/.qt-license</code> of step three, I suppose I'm typing this into the terminal?. Same with the <code>./configure</code>? Both of these commands return no such file exists.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know a better walk through to install <code>Qt3</code> files, or can give a quick breakdown of this tutorial?</p>
