31 <application>Qt5</application> is a cross-platform application framework
32 that is widely used for developing application software with a graphical
33 user interface (GUI) (in which cases <application>qt5</application> is
34 classified as a widget toolkit), and also used for developing non-GUI
35 programs such as command-line tools and consoles for servers. Two of the
36 major users of <application>qt</application> are <application>KDE
37 Frameworks 5 (KF5)</application> and <application>LXQt</application>.

45 They cover the components needed to build

161
162 <bridgehead renderas="sect3">Installing in /opt/qt5</bridgehead>
163
164 <para>
165 The BLFS editors recommend installing <application>qt5</application> in a
166 directory other than <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>, i.e.
167 <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename>. To do this, set the
168 following environment variable:
169 </para>
170
171<screen><userinput>export QT5PREFIX=/opt/qt5</userinput></screen>
172
173 <tip>
174 <para>
175 Sometimes, the installation paths are hardcoded into installed files.
176 This is the reason why <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename>
177 is used as installation prefix instead of <filename
178 class="directory">/opt/qt-&qt5-version;</filename>. To create a
179 versioned <application>qt5</application> directory after the
180 installation is complete, you may rename the directory and create a symlink:
181 </para>
182
183<screen role="root"><userinput>mkdir -pv /opt/qt-&qt5-version;
184ln -sfnv qt-&qt5-version; /opt/qt5</userinput></screen>
185
186 <para>
187 Later on, you may want to install other versions of
188 <application>qt5</application>. To do that, just remove the symlink
189 and use <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename> as the
190 prefix again. Which version of <application>qt5</application> you
191 use depends only on where the symlink points.
192 </para>

196
197 <sect2 role="installation">
198 <title>Installation of qt5</title>
199
200 <warning>
201 <para>
202 If <application>qt5</application> is being reinstalled into the
203 same directory as an existing instance, run the commands done by
204 &root;, such as
205 <command>make install</command>, from a console or non-qt5 based
206 window manager. It overwrites <application>qt5</application>
207 libraries that should not be in use during the install process.
208 </para>
209 </warning>
210
211 <caution>
212 <para>
213 If you did not install some of the recommended dependencies, examine
214 <command>./configure --help</command> output to check how to disable
215 them or use internal versions bundled in the source tarball.
216 </para>
217 </caution>
218
219 <note>
220 <para>
221 The BLFS editors do not recommend installing
222 <application>qt5</application> into the
223 <filename class="directory">/usr</filename> hierarchy because it
224 becomes difficult to find components and to update to a new version.
225 If you do want to install <application>qt5</application> in
226 <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>, the directories need to
227 be specified explicitly. In this case, set
228 <envar>QT5PREFIX=/usr</envar> and add the following to the configure
229 arguments below:
230 </para>
231
232<screen role="nodump"><userinput> -archdatadir /usr/lib/qt5 \

244 Now apply a patch to pull in the fixes curated by kde for those

250 <para>
251 The patch is supposed to be used in a git repository. Otherwise some
252 files that should be modified by <command>configure</command> after
253 applying the patch are not touched. Fortunately, it is enough to create a
254 <filename class="directory">.git</filename> directory in the
255 <filename class="directory">qmake</filename> directory where the
256 <command>configure</command> script is run:
257 </para>

268 At this point we want to set up skipping most components. Do that with:

276 <command>sed -i '/qtdoc/d' tempconf</command>.
277 </para>
278
279 <para>
280 If you choose to not install <xref linkend='qt6'/> and want to use qt5 with
281 wireshark, run: <command>sed -i '/qtmultimedia/d' tempconf</command>.
