Re: qt-gui problems with GNU 3.8

[Mark Koenig]

So, I opened the docker contained and I did what you suggested (cleaning up 
make and removing the build directory) then successfully rebuilt the gnuradio 
package with the qt-gui module.

What’s odd is that if I try and do this automatically with a dockerfile, using 
the docker build command, I get the qt-gui failures. 

Any thoughts why?

    That sounds like `moc` is misbehaving. Or CMake is and the Makefiles
    aren't correctly regenerating all necessary files if subsets are
    already there.
    
    a) If you haven't, uninstall all potentially half-installed GNU Radios
    (don't ask), purge your build folder and cmake; make -j8 again
    b) If that doesn't solve it, we'll need to look at the paths: Do the
    paths (starting with __ in your, I presume censored, email) look right?

trouble getting qt-gui to enabled.  I am currently using the new distro CentOS 
8, and I cannot find any ‘qwt’ packages.  Has anyone got gnuradio to build on 
CentOS 8 yet?  I am very close to having all the modules I desire to be built 
and enabled.
