OK no problem, I'll do it right away.

Edit: done.

Hi guys,

I followed the steps listed but with yesterday's source and on centos 6.4 and everything works fine, except for the mouse scroll wheel. I VNC into the box that qt-creator compiled and installed from sources, but VNC or no VNC, the scrollwheel just doesn't work. I recompiled Qt and Qt-Creator a number of times but still no go. I have all the xcb packages installed but the scrollwheel just doesn't work. Did anyone experience this issue?

Thanks

No, I have not had that problem. Check out the configure output: maybe there are some hints there.

I checked the output and didn't find anything out of the norms. Let me post the output here, maybe your eyes may find something.

Qt will be installed into /usr/local/Qt-5.3.0

Prior to reconfiguration, make sure you remove any leftovers from
the previous build.

Looks good to me, too...

Would this qualify as a bug? I can reproduce this everytime on a Centos 6.4 and 6.5.

sierdzio · wrote on 9 Apr 2014, 18:06

Yes, please "report it":https://qt-project.org/wiki/ReportingBugsInQt.

The wiki page is not part of documentation per se, so you can't claim it's a bug because a thing from the docs is not working, but I think it's important to notify the Qt dev that something is wrong.

Hi sierdzio,

Apparently, there is an existing "bug":https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-38169 with 5.3beta1, which I am experiencing since I cloned a few days back. I read the bug report and it looks like 5.2.1 was all good. I want to follow the same instructions listed on this post to "build 5.2.1 from source.":http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.2/5.2.1/single/ .Would they work? The file I was hoping to download is qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.2.1.tar.gz.

Thanks.

You need to check yourself. I have seen enough errors on CentOS to try to stay away from that OS as far as possible.

I often build Qt on Kubuntu linux and sometimes on OpenSUSE - there it works without problems, every time.
