    So, the 'gstreamer' I have installed is newer than the Qt 5.5 requires, right? If so, shouldn't it work?

    Do you think it will work on Qt 5.7?

    Thanks!

      In this case not because it's a new major release (1.0 vs 0.1). That's why the plugin doesn't load.

      Since you'll be building Qt 5.7 by hand, it will pickup the your installed GStreamer and build the plugin accordingly.

        Changing the subject to 5.7, I run 'configure', 'make' and 'sudo make install', but I did not find 'qtcreator' anywhere in the directory tree, and it is not in the $PATH. Does 'qtcreator' come in the tar.gz Qt 5.7 package?

        Thanks!

          No, Qt Creator is a younger and independent project. However you don't have to build it yourself (unless your current Qt Creator is really old).

          Qt Creator can handle older as well as newer version of Qt.

            Just checking, I need to change 'Tools/Options/Build & Run/Qt Versions', to use Qt 5.7 libs, right?

            Thanks!

              Add your self built 5.7 to the Qt Versions and then create a new Kit using it. Then you'll be able to configure and build your project with that Kit.

                'make -j4' run for about an hour now, and finished with

                'Makefile:77: recipe for target 'module-qtbase-make_first' failed
                

                Before running 'make', I run './configure -help' and I did not see anything related to module 'qtbase'. Any ideia on what I missed?

                Thanks

                  I think I found the answer at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=191765. Well, if it works, it'll take about an hour for 'make' to run again. It's 9:30 p.m. here, so maybe I'll only have news tomorrow.

                  Thanks again!

                    Did you add the -developer-build option ? If so you should drop it unless you plan to hack on Qt itself.

                      In my first attempt, I used it, but then I tried

                      ./configure -no-warnings-are-errors -gstreamer 1.0 -prefix /usr/local/Qt-5.7 -debug
                      

                      and I got the same error...

                      I saw somewhere someone tried with '-release -force-debug-info'. I'll try that, and let you know later.

                      Thanks

                        SGaist,

                        Thanks a lot for your help, but due to time restrictions, I gave up on installing 5.7 on a Linux on a 32 bits CPU.

                        I am using a Mac OS 64 bits at work now.

                        Thanks a lot for your help.
