Hi and welcome to devnet,
Then can you try with something more recent like 4.9 or even 5 ?

Nuke your current build and do a full rebuild including the configuration part.
Also, you should logout from root, it's really not the right account for development.

Other idea: How much RAM is installed on your machine?
(I had compiler crashes on a RasPi which could be solved in my case by expanding the swap file to 2GB. Some Qt parts are very memory hungry during compilation and cc1plus dies when running out of memory). -

@micland 2gb ram. Ya i read these issues were regarding memory but was not sure about that.

Ok I think 2 GB should be enough (but I'm not sure). The build fails with the same error if you have less than 1GB. In my case I was able build Qt with 750MB RAM + 2GB swap file but I don't know what's the absolute required minimum....
