How to perform a minimal installation
-
Hello,
My system is running CentOS8 and one app needs Qt. I started the Qt installation (from source) but it was definitely a lot more than anticipated. Hence, I would like to scale down and perform sort of a minimal installation. I'm guessing that it would consist of Qt_core but not sure if something else is also required. Is there an easy way to configure this minimal installation? Thanks. -
So you need to compile the app by your own? Then you also have to install the Qt5 development packages.

Which app, how do you install it? Can't you simply use the Qt provided by your OS?

Hello Christian,
The app is named Vapor (https://vapor.readthedocs.io/en/readthedocs/index.html). I tried your suggestion (and dnf installed PackageKit-Qt5.aarch64), which is definitely much, much thinner. However, it doesn't have Qt5Config.cmake or qt5-config.cmake, which seem to be required by Vapor. I really don't know what else Vapor needs so I might have to go step-by-step. Thanks. -

Thanks! Let me mark the question as solved if I figure out how to do it.
