Red Hat 5.11 Supported Qt package

KKumar

I am using Red Hat 5.11 Linux in x86_64 Bit platform. As per Qt Blog Qt 5.5 is officially had the package for the Red Hat 6.6. Is there any previous version of Qt supports Red Hat 5.11 Linux environment. ? If yes, Can i get the Qt package. If No, How to get Qt in my Red Hat 5.11 Linux ( x86_64 Bit platform). Please guide me in this..

Thanks ...

Did you try to use the Qt online installer to install Qt?
If this does not work you can still try to build Qt by yourself.

@jsulm Yes i tried online installer but it failed to run.
I even tried building Qt 5.5 and 5.2.1 on Red Hat 5.11. and keep on fixing the errors.. So, I need to know anyone tried before to Run Qt on Red Hat 5.11. If so then need their steps followed in building or Qt run package .

I followed the link https://forum.qt.io/topic/37757/howto-building-qt-5-2-1-including-webkit-on-rhel5-linux-centos-5-7

Thanks in Advance..

Qt 4.8.x will compile on RHEL5, so unless there's a specific reason to use Qt 5.x, don't bother going there. Qt 5.x won't compile directly on RHEL5 without a lot of hacking.

@KeithS Thank you very much. Now i am able to build Qt 4.8.6 in Red Hat 5.11 without any errors. With this which version of Qt creator can be used..?

You can use any QtCreator version which is running on RedHat 5.11

Hi,

@KKumar Since you are building Qt yourself, you should consider using the latest version of Qt 4 which is 4.8.7

I have built Qt 5.5 in RHEL 5.4. You have to use devtoolset-1 which will install a newer GNU compiler (RHEL5 has GCC 4.1 if my memory is correct).
So install devtoolset-1 (google how to do that) and download Qt source.
I installed all Qt component including Qt creator.

Now i am able to work on Qt 4.8.7 and Qt creator 2.5.2 on Red Hat 5.11...
