Where is Qt5QuickConfig.cmake ?

[RobertB]

I am a bit confused. My CMakeLists.txt does the following:

find_package(Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core Widgets Gui Quick)

So it will look for Qt5QuickConfig.cmake.

Via the 5.15.2 installer I have this file, and it works:

/path/to/Qt/5.15.2/clang_64/lib/cmake/Qt5Quick/Qt5QuickConfig.cmake

Via 5.15.3 (compiled from source) the following does not exist:

/path/to/Qt5/qtbase/lib/cmake/Qt5Quick/Qt5QuickConfig.cmake

In fact, that whole directory Qt5Quick does not exist.

As a result I get this error:

cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH='/path/to/Qt5/qtbase' .

CMake Error at /Users/dsc/Qt5.15.3/qtbase/lib/cmake/Qt5/Qt5Config.cmake:28 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5Quick" with any
  of the following names:

    Qt5QuickConfig.cmake
    qt5quick-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5Quick" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "Qt5Quick_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "Qt5Quick" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
  been installed.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  src/CMakeLists.txt:37 (find_package)

Where can I find Qt5QuickConfig.cmake ? Is QtQuick even getting installed?

Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'make'.
Once everything is built, Qt is installed.
You should NOT run 'make install'.
Note that this build cannot be deployed to other machines or devices.

Prior to reconfiguration, make sure you remove any leftovers from
the previous build.

@RobertB said in Where is Qt5QuickConfig.cmake ?:

-nomake tools

This looks suspicious. Some of the tools you will need when building Qt Quick.

Can you try configuring without?

Also, are you sure the compilation actually succeeded?

You can try by checking the return value: make -j10 || echo "FAILURE"
