QT5 build: CC: No such file or directory

That one is just a warning. Does it error out on this warning ?

I've started doing that too. In any case, with this:

Yes, it's a programming error in the code which only shows up on certain architectures. Why it has not been picked up in whatever version you are building (which is that?) I do not know.While building qt5 in Solaris 11.4 SPARC, I get:

Nop, he's SPARC.
As for that issue, coming from ASSIMP, it's likely something you should bring to their folks.
Sadly I do not have a big endian machine to check further what is going on there.

Would you like an account on my machine? It's a Sun T4-1 with plenty of spare CPU cycles and a fast fiber connection. Consider it my contribution to the QT project. -

Don't do that kind of things as root, you might break stuff ;-)
One thing I would do is to just build and install qtbase so you have a working base to go further.

Only when installing into system directories only writable by root.
-
Sorry, I managed to miss a part of my answer. You should put the sources somewhere in your standard user home folder and do the build there. Then when it's done successfully you can install it and then do it as root if you want it in a system folder. Otherwise, if it's just for your user, you can install it somewhere in your user home folder.

I guess I don't understand. I'm the only user. I always use /opt for big projects like QT or QEMU. The last thing I did was:
/opt/qt5/qt5-build/qtbase $ gmake -j16 > build.log 2>&1and that completed with no errors. So do I now have a working Qt5 in /opt/Qt5 that I can call from other builds? (QT5 is a prerequisite for the OpenSCAD 3D modeler).
The "Building Qt5 from Git" web page says that after doing gmake you should do gmake install. Can I just go ahead and use Qt without doing the install? How do I tell if it's working? -
Unless you created a developer build you have to call make install in order to have everything in the right place. Since you have already configured everything else you can go on in each required sub directory and call make/make install.
If the modules are note configured, you can use the classic qmake/make/make install.

I don't understand why files in /etc are being accessed.
Do you have the same issue if you build Qt in a standard user home folder ?

- /lib/libQt5Bootstrap.a not found. So I did
ln -s /opt/qt5/qt5-build/qtbase/lib/libQt5Bootstrap.a /lib/libQt5Bootstrap.a- /usr/bin/pod2man was a symbolic link pointing to itself (that's weird). So in /usr/bin I said
rm pod2man ln -s /usr/perl5/5.26/bin/pod2man pod2man- All the "cycles found" errors (not shown above) were because gmake install was using /usr/bin/install instead of /opt/csw/bin/install. So I said
cd /opt/csw/bin ln -s ginstall installAfter those changes,
# /opt/qt5/qt5-build/gmake installworked fine.
