explicitly set qmake path (after install from source)

[JacobNovitsky]

which qmake
/usr/bin/qmake

j@j-BOHB-WAX9:~/.local/share/applications$ ls /usr/lib/qt5/
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/qt5/': No such file or directory

I think some path contains it, but does not see need to explicitly set qmake path to real one

j@j-BOHB-WAX9:~/.local/share/applications$ qmake -query
qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/qt5/bin/qmake': No such file or directory

seem solved
export QTDIR=/usr/local/Qt-6.4.2
export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
export QT_SELECT=qt6

Upd same issue, trying to re-build qtcreator

@JacobNovitsky run command:
locate qmake
show output here.

[JacobNovitsky]

@JoeCFD said in explicitly set qmake path (after install from source):

locate qmake
is not located by locate
but can do which
j@j-BOHB-WAX9:~/qtcreator_build$ which qmake
/usr/bin/qmake
after updatedb

found it here /usr/local/Qt-6.4.2/bin/qmake and set
@JoeCFD sending my love

[JoeCFD]

@JacobNovitsky which qmake shows which qmake is the first one in the PATH if you have a few qmakes.
sudo apt-get install plocate
and
locate qmake

[JacobNovitsky]

@JoeCFD yes, I used plocate, also I use mate-search-tool if need more detailed search
