qt4.3.3 with openSUSE10.3 need help

I'm trying to use a new beta version of Skype that allows video conferencing and apparently in order to use Skype I have to have QT4 installed. QT4 isn't in the repository so I'm guessing there isn't a openSUSE RPM available. I downloaded 4.3.3 open source and need to know how to install (properly so I don't royally screw it up!). So if anyone with openSUSE exp. could take a minute and walk me through I'd be grateful!

Thank you!

Add repository and install. Of course you need to add right version (i586, i686, x86_64 etc).

Because I now use Win and Mandriva these steps must be followed with extra caution!!

Qt from source installation are described in INSTALL file (arfter unarchyving).

Well my steps are following:
I. Install dev (devel) (development) packages for mysql, libtiff, libpng, freetype. well whatever. I usually install almost everything.
II. unarchyve Qt package.
Move new directory (qt-opensource or whatever name) to /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.3 (if I am right. Consult INSTALL file!)
"mkdir /usr/local/Trolltech"
"mv qt-opensource...[whatever directory name]-3.3 /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.3"
"cd /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.3"
III. If you are programmer or know what are you doing edit /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.3/mkspec/common/g++/qmake.conf (or in other mkspec directory depends on compiler) file. Add optimization for your architecture, processor etc.
III. Run "./configure --help" to see options.
Run "./configure [your options]"
IV. Run "make".
V. Add /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.3/lib path to /etc/ld.conf.
Run "ldconf"
Run skype.
If you will programm make symbolic links to qmake and whatever you need.
"ln -s /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.3/bin/qmake /usr/local/bin/qmake4"[/list]
