    Do you have the libgles2-mesa-dev package installed ?

    You also need to install qtquickcontrols2-5-dev

    It's compiling!
    I just got a makefile error :

    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLESv2
    collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
    Makefile:143: recipe for target 'appliUR' failed

        Yes, I got the following result:

        pi@raspberrypi:~/Documents/urecran/appliUR $ sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa-dev
        Reading package lists... Done
        Building dependency tree       
        Reading state information... Done
        libgles2-mesa-dev is already the newest version (13.0.6-1+rpi2).
        The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
          lxkeymap python-cairo python-gobject python-gobject-2 python-gtk2 python-xklavier
        Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.

              Did you check whether you have this library somewhere on your OS ?

                @SGaist I tried this function:

                ldconfig -p | grep libgles2-mesa-dev
                

                I have no output, so I suppose the lib is not installed? So why apt-get told me it is already installed?

                  You are mixing the name of the package and the name of the library. Use grep -i gles.

                      IIRC, the quick workaround would to create a symbolic link named libGLESv2.so to your libbrcmGLESv2.so

                        I never did that before.
                        So I tried that :

                        sudo ln -s /opt/vc/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so /opt/vc/lib/libGLESv2.so
                        

                        But now the compilation failed:

                        pi@raspberrypi:~/Documents/urecran/appliUR $ make
                        g++ -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-rpath-link,/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf -o appliUR main.o strategiesmodel.o communication.o qrc_qml.o moc_strategiesmodel.o moc_communication.o   -lQt5QuickControls2 -lQt5Quick -lQt5Gui -lQt5Qml -lQt5Network -lQt5Core -lGLESv2 -lpthread 
                        /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLESv2
                        collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
                        Makefile:143: recipe for target 'appliUR' failed
                        make: *** [appliUR] Error 1
                        

                        It was the right command?

                          Because the linker won't search for libraries in /opt/vc/lib/. Add it to your .pro file with a line like LIBS += -L/opt/vc/lib/

                            Visibly another component need the lib and doesn't find the symbolic link. Sorry to be so nooby.

                              I am stupid, it's just a warning. The application compiled.
                              I just have a problem when I want to execute the program. The symbolic link doesn't work:

                              ./appliUR: error while loading shared libraries: libGLESv2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

                                You need to enable the vc4 gpu driver in raspi-config. I think it is listed under experimental section.

                                    Modify LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that it also point to that folder.

                                      Looks like it. Shame it didn't work. Try the other options maybe, but they are less likely to work.

                                        @SGaist now all the librairy are found. But there is a missing plugin:

                                        pi@raspberrypi:~/Documents/appliUR $ ./appliUR 
                                        This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "eglfs"
                                        in "".
                                        
                                        Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, xcb.
                                        
                                        Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
                                        Aborted
                                        

                                        So I tried to create a sym link to the EGL lib too:

                                        sudo ln -s /opt/vc/lib/libbrcmEGL.so /opt/vc/lib/libEGL.so
                                        

                                        But it didn't work. It's almost working!

                                        @sierdzio I tried all options, without success.

                                          Eglfs platform plugin is a Qt plugin, located in <qt dir>/plugins/platforms.

                                          Most probably your Qt was compiled for XCB (X11) only. Try running your app with -platform xcb argument (but expect low performance from this plugin...).
