[alicebot-general] RebeccaAIML .981 released with new QT GUI in the samples section

[Noel Bush]

Oh sorry, my fault.  I see from the prerequisites file that I'm supposed 
to have Xerces-C and Boost installed and a few environment variables 
set.  After installing Xerces-C, which I didn't have, the following took 
care of things and let me build successfully:

export XERCES_INCLUDE=/usr/include/xercesc
export XERCES_LIB=/usr/lib
export XERCES_LIBD=/usr/lib
export BOOST_INCLUDE=/usr/include/boost
export BOOST_INCLUDE=/usr/include/boost
export BOOST_LIB=/usr/lib
export BOOST_LIBD=/usr/lib
