<![CDATA[Can not compile a source in Ubuntu 16]]>Dear all,
I downloaded the source of this tool. I opened starlab_full.pro and tried to build it in my Ubuntu 16 machine but I got this error:

Project ERROR: CHOLMOD (suitesparse) not found! sudo apt-get install libsuitesparse-dev
18:10:44: The process "/usr/bin/qmake-qt4" exited with code 2.
Error while building/deploying project starlab_full (kit: Qt4)
When executing step "qmake"
18:10:44: Elapsed time: 00:00.

I installed libsuitesparse-dev and rebuilt but I got the same error. I modified /core/external/cholmod-4.0.0/cholmod.prf
and added

LIBS *= -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

Now I get this error:

Reading starlab/surfacemesh/surfacemesh_filter_ballpivoting/surfacemesh_filter_ballpivoting.pro [starlab-build/surfacemesh/surfacemesh_filter_ballpivoting]
Project LOAD(): Feature  cannot be found.
18:18:32: The process "/usr/bin/qmake-qt4" exited with code 3.
Error while building/deploying project starlab_full (kit: Qt4)
When executing step "qmake"

I am not sure what to do, any suggestion?
Thanks!

P.S.
You seem like you are trying to use Qt4 while the library is for Qt5
