Search the required packages at http://rpm.pbone.net
There is a link for advanced search where you can tell the search engine which distribution's packages you want.

type "yum search qt-4" or "yum search qt". you should be able to find the package you need (qt-4.something). use "yum install qt-4.something" to install it.
do not use rpm.pbone or any similar site if your distribution has the packages. always, ALWAYS use your distribution's packages unless there's a compelling reason to use something else.

Isn't it amazing how so many people can type "linuxpakistan.net" into their browsers but not "google.com"?

Dear lambda. i tried your solution but, it shows the problem of "CAN NOT RETRIEVE REPOSITORY DATA...." though i have added repositories. I don't know what to do. Plz help me.
I tried the method of Muhammad Sad as well. I downloaded the packages and while installing them, each one showed error of dependencies and hence no installation. It is to be noted that my system is connected to the Internet with high bandwidth. I need your help.

i don't use fedora. do you connect to the internet through a proxy? if so, you need to configure yum to use the proxy. simply typing "export http_proxy=http://your.proxy.host:8080" before any yum commands might be sufficient, but maybe not.

remove any unofficial repositories you added, and then try "yum search qt4" or "yum search qt-4".
