QMake module path for KArchive

dridk2

Hi,
I installed KArchive on my system using apt-get install.
And I m using a local Qt installed from the website package.
So, to use KArchive, I need to add in my qmake :

 Qt += KArchive

Because, I m not using Qt from my system but from a custom installed /home/boby/
I have copied the module definition from system to my Qt dir installation :

cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/mkspecs/modules/qt_KArchive.pri  ~/Linux_data/Qt/5.7/gcc_64/mkspecs/modules

So now it works fine ! But it's pretty ugly. Is there a variable environement or something else to do this better ?

You can just do the linking manually...

INCLUDEPATH += "$$(KDELIBPATH)/include/KF5/KArchive"
LIBS +=  -L"$$(KDELIBPATH)/lib"  -lKF5Archive

instead of $$(KDELIBPATH) use the one where you installed KArchive
