pvdevelop is a IDE for developing pvservers. It relies on some external commands. These are:
Linux:
qmake g++ make
Before using pvdevelop make sure these commands are available. You may have to install the qt development package first and link qmake to /usr/local/bin/
Windows:
Qt including qmake MinGW
Before using pvdevelop make sure Qt and MinGW is installed. In the bin directory there are batch files you can edit in order to use these newer tools or even a different C++ compiler.
