qt compile error?

[c_wakefield@shaw.ca]

Greetings all:

I'm compiling a 2.6.10-rc3 kernel and getting this error:
--------------------------------------------------------
crow@debian:~/linux-2.6.9$ make xconfig
  HOSTLD  scripts/kconfig/qconf
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lqt
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/qconf] Error 1
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2
--------------------------------------------------------
Also:
--------------------------------------------------------
crow@debian:~/linux-2.6.9$ make gconfig
*
* Unable to find the GTK+ installation. Please make sure that
* the GTK+ 2.0 development package is correctly installed...
* You need gtk+-2.0, glib-2.0 and libglade-2.0.
*
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/.tmp_gtkcheck] Error 1
make: *** [gconfig] Error 2
-------------------------------------------------------

When my install was fresh, a few days ago, I was able to compile 2.6.10-rc2 
with no problems.  It wouln't boot, the initrd module thing is still a 
problem, but at least I could run xconfig...)

Has anyone encountered this error and have a suggestion?
