35 <application>Qt5</application> is a cross-platform application framework
36 that is widely used for developing application software with a graphical
37 user interface (GUI) (in which cases <application>Qt5</application> is
38 classified as a widget toolkit), and also used for developing non-GUI
39 programs such as command-line tools and consoles for servers. One of the

176
177 <para>
178 The BLFS editors recommend installing <application>Qt5</application> in a
179 directory other than <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>, ie
180 <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename>. To do this, set the
181 following environment variable:
182 </para>
183
184<screen><userinput>export QT5PREFIX=/opt/qt5</userinput></screen>
185
186 <tip>
187 <para>
188 Sometimes, the installation paths are hardcoded into installed files.
189 This is the reason why <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename>
190 is used as installation prefix instead of <filename
191 class="directory">/opt/qt-&qt5-version;</filename>. To create a
192 versioned <application>Qt5</application> directory after the
193 installation is complete, you may rename the directory and create a symlink:
194 </para>
195
196<screen role="root"><userinput>mkdir -pv /opt/qt-&qt5-version;
197ln -sfnv qt-&qt5-version; /opt/qt5</userinput></screen>
198
199 <para>
200 Later on, you may want to install other versions of
201 <application>Qt5</application>. To do that, just remove the symlink
202 and use <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename> as the
203 prefix again. Which version of <application>Qt5</application> you
204 use depends only on where the symlink points.
205 </para>
206 </tip>

208 <note>

210 If <xref linkend="qca"/> has been installed and you are
211 reinstalling or updating this package, then

221 <warning>
222 <para>
223 If <application>Qt5</application> is being reinstalled into the
224 same directory as an existing instance, run the commands done by
225 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>, such as
226 <command>make install</command>, from a console or non-Qt5 based
227 window manager. It overwrites <application>Qt5</application>
228 libraries that should not be in use during the install process.

230 </warning>
231
232 <caution>
233 <para>
234 If you did not install some of the recommended dependencies, examine
235 <command>./configure --help</command> output to check how to disable
236 them or use internal versions bundled in the source tarball.

242 The build time and space required for the full
243 <application>Qt5</application> is quite long. The instructions below
244 do not build the tutorials and examples. Removing the
245 <parameter>-nomake</parameter> line will create a complete build.

250 <para>
251 The BLFS editors do not recommend installing <application>Qt5</application>
252 into the /usr hierarchy because it becomes difficult to find
253 components and to update to a new version. If you do want to install
254 <application>Qt5</application> in /usr, the directories need to
255 be specified explicitly. In this case, set QT5PREFIX=/usr and add
256 the following to the configure arguments below:
