I have written the following program in Qt Creator.



The error message refers to Ubuntu. I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 on a device with Intel i5.



I've been researching for days and have not found a solution yet.



What could be the problem and how can I fix it?



#include <QApplication>
#include <QPushButton>

int main(int argc, char* argv)
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
QPushButton button("Hallo Welt und so weiter");

button.move(250,300);
button.show();

return app.exec();
}

          At first it is very strange that you have Qt in /opt.



          The correct way would be to install Qt 5.9.5 and other development packages from repository:



          sudo apt-get install qt5-default build-essential checkinstall 
          libc6-dev libssl-dev libexpat1-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libqt4-dev
          libavcodec-dev libavutil-dev pkg-config


          Then compile your program with



          g++ HalloWelt.cpp $(pkg-config --cflags Qt5Widgets) $(pkg-config --libs Qt5Widgets) -fPIC -o HalloWelt


          And run with



          ./HalloWelt


          HalloWelt



          If you want to fix only -lGL error you should install one package:



          sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev
