36 <application>Qt5</application> is a cross-platform application framework
37 that is widely used for developing application software with a graphical
38 user interface (GUI) (in which cases <application>Qt5</application> is
39 classified as a widget toolkit), and also used for developing non-GUI
40 programs such as command-line tools and consoles for servers. One of the
41 major users of <application>Qt</application> is <application>KDE
42 Frameworks 5 (KF5)</application>.

155
156 <para>
157 The BLFS editors recommend installing <application>Qt5</application> in a
158 directory other than <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>, ie
159 <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename>. To do this, set the
160 following environment variable:
161 </para>
162
163<screen><userinput>export QT5PREFIX=/opt/qt5</userinput></screen>
164
165 <tip>
166 <para>
167 Sometimes, the installation paths are hardcoded into installed files.
168 This is the reason why <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename>
169 is used as installation prefix instead of <filename
170 class="directory">/opt/qt-&qt5-version;</filename>. To create a
171 versioned <application>Qt5</application> directory, you may rename
172 the directory and create a symlink:
173 </para>
174
175<screen role="root"><userinput>mkdir /opt/qt-&qt5-version;
176ln -sfnv qt-&qt5-version; /opt/qt5</userinput></screen>
177
178 <para>
179 Later on, you may want to install other versions of
180 <application>Qt5</application>. To do that, just remove the symlink
181 and use <filename class="directory">/opt/qt5</filename> as the
182 prefix again. Which version of <application>Qt5</application> you
183 use depends only on where the symlink points.
184 </para>
185 </tip>
186
187 <note>
188 <para>
189 If <xref linkend="qca"/> has been installed and you are
190 reinstalling or updating this package, then
191 <application>qca</application> will need to be reinstalled.

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 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>, 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.

220 <para>
221 The build time and space required for the full
222 <application>Qt5</application> is quite long. The instructions below
223 do not build the tutorials and examples. Removing the
224 <parameter>-nomake</parameter> line will create a complete build.

228 <note>
229 <para>
230 The BLFS editors do not recommend installing <application>Qt5</application>
231 into the /usr hierarchy because it becomes difficult to find
232 components and to update to a new version. If you do want to install
233 <application>Qt5</application> in /usr, the directories need to
234 be specified explicitly. In this case, set QT5PREFIX=/usr and add
235 the following to the configure arguments below:
