    Hello,

    I am trying to install Qt 4.8.7 on macOS Mojave, which is setup as a virtual machine.

    I downloaded the source package, uncompressed and unpacked it.

    When i run ./configure command, the process generates the following error:

    /Users/seyda/downloads/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.7/include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/tools/qiterator.h:50:11: fatal error:'new' file not found
    include <new> // No-op, indirectly include additional configuration headers.
    1 warning and 1 error generated.
    make: *** [project.o] Error 1

    If I ignore this error message and try the 'sudo make -j1 install' command, the following message returns:

    make: Nothing to be done for 'install'

    Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

    Thank you,
    Seyda

      Qt 4.8.7

      Do you really need Qt4?

        @jsulm I want to work on an application developed with Qt4, so I would really like to work with Qt4 rather than moving to Qt5.

          @Seyda What compiler do you use (xCode version)?

            There are offline installers for precompiled 4.8.7. Have you tried that?

              I am using Xcode 11.3.1

              @Bonnie
              Yes, I have already tried that. Through the end of the setup a message says the software is incompatible with the current macOS version and the setup is aborted.

                Hi,

                One of the main issue is: 4.8.7 has reached end of life before Mojave was released.

                You may have better luck checking with macports or brew if they still provide it.
