    Supporting the rizin/cutter open source project via Github. It invokes QT5. I have setup Kali via Windows 11 wsl 2 and a stand alone install.

    I was able to install QT5 5.15.2 on the Windows 11 wsl Kali distro by following - https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git#Getting_the_source_code

    But, I have yet to figure out how to get it to install on the stand alone Kali. It fails before I get to the build with the configure command

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

    Attached is a terminal screen capture showing what is belched out.

    Any configuration ideas that is preventing the configuration command from working?!?

      @DrewDawg What exact compiler do you use to build Qt?

        @jsulm , I believe it is using the default gcc or g++ (Debian 11.3.0-1) 11.3.0 which is the same for the Windows Kali distro. Note I have been trying to locate possible KDE patches, in particular any related to gcc, but haven't figured that out, yet.

        I am not a linux pro. In the learning phase.

        p.s., I downloaded and installed the Bare Metal Kali distro (https://www.kali.org/get-kali/) as a Windows 11 dual boot this past weekend.

          @DrewDawg Please enter

          gcc --version
          

          in a terminal in Linux and post its output here.

              Cloned v5.15.2 from KDE - https://invent.kde.org/qt/qt/qt5/-/tree/v5.15.2, but same result. g++ doesn't like code in qfloat16.h and qendian.h. My guess there should be a patch for it. So, finding and applying that patch is my current goal.
