    I am trying to build qt creator 2.8.1 from source. My platform is Centos 6 x64, with all qt 5.1.1 packages installed via yum. Qmake ran with no complaints (other than private header warnings), but make fails with the message below.

    I read something about compiler bugs so I installed devtoolset-1.1 and recompiled...

      I think "-Werror" is to be blamed here, try building without it.

        I'm pretty new to Qt....so....where would I override the compiler setting? Is there a parameter I can send to qmake?

          AFAIK, Qt Creator should not be using Werror by default. I don't know how to disable it, take a look at the .pro file, or run qmake and then remove the flag from the Makefile.

            I had same problem.
            Files:
            @qt-creator-2.8.1-src.tar.gz
            qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1.tar.gz@

            After you unpacked both tar.gz and builded (configure, make, make install) the (qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1.tar.gz), try this:

            @ln -s qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1/qtbase/bin/qmake /bin/qmake@

            @cp qt-creator-2.8.1-src/src/libs/3rdparty/cplusplus/Literals.h qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1/qtbase/src/3rdparty/angle/src/compiler/preprocessor/@

            @cd qt-creator-2.8.1-src
            qmake -r
            make
            make CFLAGS="-Wno-error -fPIC" CXXFLAGS="-Wno-error -fPIC"

            cp qt-creator-2.8.1-src/src/libs/3rdparty/cplusplus/Literals.h qt-creator-2.8.1-src/src/shared/qbs/src/plugins/scanner/cpp/

            cp qt-creator-2.8.1-src/src/libs/3rdparty/cplusplus/Name.h qt-creator-2.8.1-src/src/shared/qbs/src/plugins/scanner/cpp/

            make

            restore qmake

            rm -f /bin//qmake
            ln -s /usr/local/Qt-5.1.1/bin/qmake /bin/qmake
            @

            The (1st) make will exit with error:
            @/usr/include/qt5/QtCore/qbytearray.h:433: error: dereferencing pointer ‘<anonymous>’ does break strict-aliasing rules ..@

            The (2nd) make will exit with error:
            @Name.h:48: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of ‘AnonymousNameId’ with no type
            Name.h:48: error: ‘AnonymousNameId’ declared as a ‘virtual’ field
            Name.h:48: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘*’ token
            Name.h:49: error: expected ‘;’ before ‘virtual’@

            The (3rd) make will compile. :)

            It seems working, (Centos 6.4 x86_64)
            gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-3)
