I'm using QGIS 1.5 embedded in a Qt application and I currently don't have Qwt installed on the system. I just download QGIS 1.7 and tried building it on my system, but it complained about QWT not being found. I read through the release announcements from 1.6 and 1.7 and neither of them mentioned that QWT was now required, but was that fact inadvertently left out?<br>
