Qt 5.15.2 for clang
I'm trying to compile the Qt5.15.2 from source code for clang usage (need C++20 for the project).
I already done it on Ubuntu 20 and know trying on Ubuntu 22 without any success.

What I've done :

(1) LLVM installation :

Getting source code :

git clone https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git

Configure and build:

cd llvm-project &&
mkdir build     &&
cd build        &&
cmake -S ../llvm                           \\
-B .                                       \\
-G Ninja                                   \\
-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS=clang               \\
-DLLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES="libcxx;libcxxabi"  \\
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/         \\
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release                 \\

cmake --build . parallel

(2) Qt installation

Download : https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.15/5.15.2/single/qt-everywhere-src-5.15.2.tar.xz
Download dependencies like xorg etc...
Setting installation prefix to

/opt/qt5

Then configure

./configure -prefix /opt/qt5 -platform linux-clang-libc++ -linker ldd

(3) Error encountered
Unfortunately I can't configure because I have linker error.

What should I do ?

Does it succeed if you don't pass -linker ldd to configure?

@kkoehne No ... doesn't change anything unfortunately. Seems ldd isn't called at all and ld is call by default.
