Qt 5.7 -lGL not found
-
Hi !
I wanted to migrate my software from Qt 4.8 to 5.7, but I'm stopped by a message "-IGL not found" at the link stage.
I'm working on linux.
I don't understand which library is missing since under Qt 4.8 I don't have any error !
Thanks 4 your help,
BenoitH

It should be OpenGL library.

Hi and welcome to devnet,
Please search the forum a bit, this question has been asked many times already: you are missing the OpenGL development package on your system.
Then name of the package depends on your distribution.

Hi,
Did you install a 32 bit Qt in your system ?
-
Can you show the linker line before it starts outputting this error ?

Maybe a silly question but did you install the OpenGL dev package for your OS ?
-
Strange, then one silly idea, install the Qt development environment from your distribution. That might trigger some additional packages installation that might help.
