[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55187] build: fails to work with Qt 5.12, qcollectiongenerator no longer exists

[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #37, bug #55187 (project octave):

I'm on macOS. With qt 5.11.2 the Qt configure process succeeds.

With qt 5.12.0 the Qt configure process fails. This may or may not be unique
to macOS.

For each, the include files are where they belong, and in equivalent
locations. However, the configure process produces include entries that drill
down into the frameworks on qt5.11 differently than on qt5.12.

For 5.11.2, the include files for QtCore are in each location below
(sym-linkded).


/usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.11.2/lib/QtCore.framework/Headers/qvariant.h
/usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.11.2/include/QtCore/qvariant.h


For 5.12.0, the include files for QtCore are in each location below
(sym-linkded).


/usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.12.0/lib/QtCore.framework/Headers/qvariant.h
/usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.12.0/include/QtCore/qvariant.h


For 5.11.2, the include entry is


-I/usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.11.2/include/QtCore


my configure includes a reference to the Qt frameworks.


LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -F/usr/local/opt/qt/lib"


For 5.12.0, the include entry is


-I/usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.12.0/lib/QtCore.framework/Headers


I've tried using a reference to the frameworks.


LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -F/usr/local/opt/qt/lib"


Also tried using a reference to the libs.


LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -L/usr/local/opt/qt/lib"
