Building QT from git

PeterP

I'm using this link:

https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git#Building_Qt_WebKit

When I run:

../qt5/configure -developer-build -opensource -nomake examples -nomake tests

The terminal runs and spits out a lot of unreadable stuff, but it seems to work.
The thing is that it stopped at these lines:

Info: creating super cache file D:\Projects\plasmoqt\build\.qmake.super
Info: creating cache file D:\Projects\plasmoqt\build\.qmake.cache
Info: creating stash file D:\Projects\plasmoqt\build\.qmake.stash

And I have no idea what to do, the process is still running for more than 40 minutes.

What is going on?

This does not mention any error. Try running configure with verbose flag to see more output.

Kill it. Configure typically finishes in a few minutes, 40 is definitely too long.

Compilation, later on - yea that step can take between 30 minutes and 2 days (depending on CPU).

What is going on?

No idea, I don't have enough information.
