Hi!

Undefined symbols that are missing are from Qt libs. I'd recommend to do 'make install' after you build QtD (don't forget to specify CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option in cmake prior to build to point to the directory where you have your dmd toolchain) and then look into the build scripts of the examples which typically have a name build.sh. They contain the command line with all necessary libraries to link, typically:

-L-lqtdgui -L-lqtdcore -L-lQtCore -L-lQtGui

I saw you made the reference to this link (http://www.dsource.org/projects/qtd/wiki/MacCaseStudy which contains this command line option, but still I don't understand why you get undefined symbols like QPrintDialog::options() const which belongs to libQtGui.
