Unknown option -no-webkit?

If you do not want to build QtWebKit at all, use the --no-webkit argument of the init-repository script and you are done.

The problem, for some reason was that the double dash is displayed as one single, longer dash. When I copied and pasted it into the dos prompt it didn't work, later I opened the perl script and saw it is two dashes and used that instead and that did the trick. So the option is really:

@--no-webkit@

How to turn off webkit?[/quote]init-repository is a Perl script for automatically downloading and configuring Qt's git repositiories. See http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building-Qt-5-from-Git . The posts above say that the solution is to use a double-dash.

Edit: That's for init-repository, not configure

Or, you can just delete the "webkit" folder before you run configure.

double dash doesn't work.

I've tried deleting folder will post later if that worked

@-skip qtwebkit@

works for QT 5.2.1

pip010

neither :

perl init-repository --no-webkit

nor :

perl init-repository -skip qtwebkit

worked :(
however

perl init-repository --module-subset=default,-qtwebkit,-qtwebkit-examples

seems it did the job, webkit is no more during git submodule init,
someone need to update the docs since they are wrong !!! someone??

Hi,

What documentation are you talking about ?

Please note that this thread is 5 years old, a lot happened in between including removal of the QtWebKit from the pre-built binaries after deprecation.
