You may install it from precise repository. I tried this in 14.04, it installs fine but I didn't try building any source using it.

Add precise repository

echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main universe multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/precise.list
sudo apt-get update

Remove the repository.

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/precise.list
sudo apt-get update

This worked for me to compile lprof. I needed to additionally install qt3-apps-dev, and then all required qt3-related packages were present. And lprof even starts successfully after this :) – Ruslan Sep 12 '18 at 14:14

Actually, in my case it was sufficient to use this repo to install lprof itself. But at least I've tested that Qt3 development packages work. – Ruslan Sep 12 '18 at 16:19

qt3-dev-tools not available in Ubuntu 13.10 . Lucid & precise have it.If you want you can install qt4-dev-tools.

but if you want to install in manual way then

Possibly this: https://github.com/develersrl/pyqt3support – MDCore Dec 09 '15 at 17:08
That looks like Python bindings. Do you have a link to something that will install plain qt3 libs and dev libs for Mint 18. I need it to compile pdfedit – Peter Flynn Aug 31 '19 at 14:01
