Native build Qt 5.7.1 on raspberry pi get errors:/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lclip2tri

expressw

I tried to build qt 5.7.1 on pi3 following this instruction:
https://wiki.qt.io/Native_Build_of_Qt_5.4.1_on_a_Raspberry_Pi

configure as:

./configure -v -opengl es2 -force-pkg-config -device linux-rpi3-g++ -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/ -opensource -confirm-license -optimized-qmake -reduce-exports -release -qt-pcre -qt-xcb -make libs -no-use-gold-linker -prefix /usr/local/qt5

The instruction is using "linux-rasp-pi-g++", but i think it should be linux-rpi3-g++ for Rpi3.

I have run configure and make commands successfully.
I tried to make install and got errors:

I found there are 3 directories in qtlocation/src/3rdparty

clip2tri
clipper
poly2tri

and 3 file in qtlocation/lib:

libclip2tri.prl
libclipper.prl
libpoly2tri.prl

but no lib files.

So, what can I do? Thanks.

I checked the build log, it seems cpp file in the directoriy qtlocation/src/3rdparty are not compiled,

I checked the qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.7.1/qtlocation/src/3rdparty/poly2tri/Makefile, which seems to compile nothing.

Same issue here, super annoying. I might try 5.6.2 and see if the issue persists.

I'm also struggling with the native build. I'm using the latest version of stock Raspbian Pixel (2017-01-11-raspbian-jessie) on a Raspberry Pi 3. I'm also following the https://wiki.qt.io/Native_Build_of_Qt_5.4.1_on_a_Raspberry_Pi guide, but I skipped the USB sections and just ran make with a single processor. I'm also switching to the linux-rpi3-g++ device. I haven't been able to run the make command successfully.

The first issue I ran into was a build failure with the error:
fatal error: bcm_host.h: No such file or directory

I resolved it using the response from djunjunjun to modify the INCLUDEPATH in the qmake.conf file
https://forum.qt.io/topic/62264/failed-to-cross-compile-qt-5-6-on-rpi-2-fatal-error-bcm_host-h-no-such-file-or-directory

Now I'm running into an issue with Wayland:
./../../hardwareintegration/client/xcomposite-egl/qwaylandxcompositeeglwindow.cpp:126:93: error: invalid conversion from ‘Window {aka long unsigned int}’ to ‘EGLNativeWindowType {aka void*}’ [-fpermissive]
m_surface = eglCreateWindowSurface(m_glxIntegration->eglDisplay(), m_config, m_xWindow,0);

I'm going to try to disable QtWayland since my application won't require it using the advice here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34223146/how-to-disable-the-qt-wayland-module-during-qt-build

Besides just documenting my issues for the next person to come along, my question for expressw and yogsodoth is what are the Raspberry Pi/Raspbian versions you are using? There must be something different for you to be getting past the errors I'm seeing.

Hello,

Almost two years in the future, but I'm answering to this because I had those very same problems with Qt 5.10 and maybe I can help somebody else (because I gave up trying to compile natively the 5.12.3 LTS by now).
I'm using a Raspberry pi 3B with Raspbian Stretch.
How I did solve that?
I've 'cd' to the sources folder inside the build directory, so in my case:

// cd to each directory and do 'sudo make' to each of them:
~/build/qtlocation/src/3rdparty/clip2tri
~/build/qtlocation/src/3rdparty/clipper
~/build/qtlocation/src/3rdparty/poly2tri

There is a Makefile inside each of the directories which you can compile as root (sudo), I don't know why as root, but ok.
After that, I've tried to "make install" again from the build dir and... It worked! Qt installed...

Hi,

just build a cross compile for Raspi.

I ran into the same problem with 5.11.3 what is old, but comes with Raspi 4.

Your receipe solved this, but no root has been required.

I ran:

WORK=$PWD
cd ./qtlocation/src/3rdparty/clip2tri; make ; cd $WORK
cd ./qtlocation/src/3rdparty/clipper; make ; cd $WORK
cd ./qtlocation/src/3rdparty/poly2tri; make ; cd $WORK

Beside that. There are other compile issues related to incompatiblty.

I skipped them by skipping the problem modules by adding this to confguire:

-skip qtwayland -skip qtlocation -skip qtscript

(thanks to: https://mechatronicsblog.com/cross-compile-and-deploy-qt-5-12-for-raspberry-pi/)
