I'm missing the library libqt.so.2 for installing a rpm on fedora core 3.
I've tried yum but wasn't able to find anything matching this library.

Does anybody know how I can't find and install this "libqt.so.2" ?

Nor do I on FC2.

Checking the Linux Format (magazine) DVD (LXF59D) which has RPMs for
KDE 3.3 I don't see libqt.so.2, but do find libqt.so.3 (I don't have
that either ... I don't have any "libqt.so.#")
(try
locate libqt
and see what you get)
The RPM on that DVD (qt-3.3.3-3.0.2.kde.i386.rpm) provides
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/lib/libqt.so.3

The FC2 RPM, qt-3.3.2-2.i386.rpm, does NOT provide libqt.so.2
for some reason.

Further checking ... the Mandrake 10.1 DVD from Linux Format.

Doing a "rpm -q -i -l -p *qt*rpm > /tmp/QT"
(to get a list of all the files provided by their "qt" RPMs)
I find no libqt.so.# (nor in "*kde*.rpm").

So, it looks like neither FC2 nor Mandrake 10.1 provide it
(do you have KDE3.3.3 on FC3? If so a "locate libqt" *might*
show libqt.so.3 instead of libqt.so.2).

NOTE: My old RH72 installation DOES have
/rh72/usr/lib/qt-2.3.1/lib/libqt.so.2
(a symbolic link to libqt.so.2.3.1)

Is this an old programme? What RPM are you trying to install?
Have you got the *src.rpm? If so, try rebuilding the binary
RPM from that. If that does not work, you can try installing
the programme from source (./configure && make && make install).
