Qt Creator Build Error

Kaptain Karl

Qt v5.3.1 (used both static and shared)
OS: CentOS 6.6
Qt Creator v.3.3

Qt has been established on this machine since July of '14.
Recently, Qt Creator 3.0 quit functioning indicating a missing xcb library. This is after functioning fine for several months. I decided to try to update to the latest version of Qt Creator. Downloaded the sources from my account. Untarred.
QTDIR and path variable pointed to my static installation.

Did not see any errors previous to this one.
I'm clueless.
Anybody have a clue that can help?

This is an update:
I upgraded gcc to 4.7.1 using dev tools.
I was then able to complete the build of qtcreator.
However when I run it I get the following:

./qtcreator&
[1] 51322This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb".

Available platform plugins are: linuxfb, minimal, offscreen, xcb.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem

So it claims is can't find the xcb plugin from its own plugin list. I'm assuming this means libxcb is missing an dependency. I'll check on that next.
