[Solved] Qt5 Beta cross compiling problem

Melph

Hi,
I have a problem cross compiling the Qt5-Beta for an i.MX6 Board.
The Host OS is a Fedora Linux, the target OS is an embedded Linux.

Steps taken so far:

I set up LTIB and created a rootfs for the target.
I downloaded the Qt5 sourcecode and excluded svg and webkit by renaming the corresponding folders
I copied the following linux-imx6-makespec in the qtbase/mkspecs folder:

# qmake configuration for building with arm-linux-gnueabi-g++

MAKEFILE_GENERATOR = UNIX
TARGET_PLATFORM = unix
TEMPLATE = app
CONFIG += qt warn_on release incremental link_prl gdb_dwarf_index
QT += core gui
QMAKE_INCREMENTAL_STYLE = sublib

include(../common/linux.conf)
include(../common/gcc-base-unix.conf)
include(../common/g++-unix.conf)

load(qt_config)

I configured the build with the following command (runs without any errors):
./configure -prefix /home/local/CW01/uidv7014/Qt_for_target -developer-build -confirm-license -opensource -nomake tests -nomake docs -nomake demos -nomake examples -no-xcb -no-wayland -xplatform linux-imx6 -arch armv7 -opengl es2 -openvg -eglfs -release -v

I tried to run make, but after a while, an error occurs:

As this error seems to occur in the neon-package, I tried to exclude it by using the -no-neon option in the configure-command. This seems to work, but then a very similar error occurs in the sqlite-package. Errors like this occur in the packages "accessibility", "linuxfb", and "libjpeg", too.

Any ideas?

#edit: I just compiled the Qt5 Alpha with the same specs successfully. So where is the difference?

Ok, I solved it. The folder where the imx6-mkspec was located did not follow the naming convention for these folders.
