New install, error with "qmake".
-
To add to my fellows who already noted it and since you are on Linux, you need to install g++ as well.
Note that I find it surprising that it's not already the case since you seem to have your distribution installed Qt development environment.

OK, we're making progress. g++ was missing, installed it and the qmake error went away. Now when I try to build an example it complains about GL/gl.h missing.
I have some OpenGL stuff installed, my old OpenGL program compiles and runs, so I am at a loss here as to what is needed.
I could have sworn that in my last go-round with Linux the c++ compiler was installed by default, and may even have been the same as the C compiler.

@bogwon C++ compiler is not the same as C compiler. GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) is a collection of different compilers, one of them is C++, it is called g++.
Regarding the error: install mesa-common-dev and libgl1-mesa-dev packages -
Besides qt5-default
this works every time

HI
Did you install the Qt visual 2015 packet ?Also, did you go download the actual visual studio compiler from microsoft site ?
It must match. Qt version and Visual studio version
So it wont work if u installed say vs 2013 or vs 2017

Hi
Not sure what that is.
Make sure you check on C++ in VS installer. Its not on pr default.
Also no debugger pr default . must also be installed.
the b4 bit version
and make sure the Qt version macth your compiler.
https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.8/5.8.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2015_64-5.8.0.exeIf all fails and you really just wanted to use Qt and not have to use Visual Studio
then try
https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.8/5.8.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw530-5.8.0.exe
It has compiler and debugger with :)
