Static build qt. Getting error because of xcb

KH-219Design

A very similar discussion is taking place at: https://forum.qt.io/topic/114784/definitive-guide-to-building-source-from-downloaded-run-file/29

No solution posted yet, though.

Silly question but did you check that you have that file in your system ?

BrMisha

@SGaist Of course i checked))

SGaist

Did you install the package after calling configure ?
If so, did you call configure from a clean state ?

BrMisha

I have re-unziped sources and tried again. And... configure done)))
Thank you very much))))

@BrMisha - so is "configure -qt-xcb" working for you now?

Tom asso

@SGaist - how to make a "clean slate" before running configure again?

Tom asso

See my note in this thread - I'm able to configure and build 5.14.0, but experience the same problem as @BrMisha with 5.14.2.

BrMisha

@Tom-asso yes))

BrMisha

I can share my build package if somebody need

SGaist

The easiest is to do out of source builds so you can easily nuke the build folder to start anew.

@BrMisha - I'm trying to build qt-everywhere-src-5.14.2 on ubuntu, having very similar problem with xcb that you report, i.e. "./configure -qt-xcb" gives errors. Are you also building qt-everywhere-src-5.14.2? How exactly did you overcome your problem and successfully build?
Thanks!

@Tom-asso At first i installed libxkbcommon-dev then
