Qt-5.7.1 building for fedora
-
Hi,
I am trying to configure Qt-5.7.1 for fedora, everything is fine but after completion of building when I am trying to open assistant, it is opening but characters are not displaying and following error are displaying on console:
***QFontDatabase: Cannot find font directory /usr/local/Qt-5.7.1Desktop/lib/fonts.
Note that Qt no longer ships fonts. Deploy some (from http://dejavu-fonts.org for example) or switch to fontconfig.Can you please go through it and give me solution to build 5.7.1 successfully.
Thanks in advance. -
@DivyaMuthyala I guess when you configured Qt fontconfig was disabled? What you can try: install dev package for fontconfig and configure/make again (make sure fontconfig is activated in the configure report).

Hi Jsulm,
Thanks for your suggestion, i was also trying to do with fontconfig argument.
But i am still wondering that, when i have installed same way(without fontconfig argument) in Ubuntu-Desktop, then it's working fine, without any error or warning.
So, what could be the reason. it's related to OS or Qt.Anyway i am going to try with your suggestion thereafter i will update you.

Hi Jsulm,
I have tried with fontconfig according to your suggestion, but still I am facing same issuue.
Can you please help me.
Thanks in advance. -
@DivyaMuthyala Did you install fontconfig dev-package?
When calling configure pass -v parameter and check what happens when configure tries to find fontconfig.
If you don't want to use fontconfig then you can create /usr/local/Qt-5.7.1Desktop/lib/fonts directory and put some fonts there.
