How to make cmake use my newly installed Qt on the home folder?












0















My Qt was installed on /home/lz/Qt5.11.2/.



ls /home/lz/Qt5.11.2/5.11.2/gcc_64
bin doc include lib libexec mkspecs phrasebooks plugins qml qtvirtualkeyboard resources translations


I tried



export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/lz/Qt5.11.2/5.11.2/gcc_64/lib"


And compiled doing make VERBOSE=1 just to see if this path was being used instead of the system ones, but it wasn't.



How do I make cmake use them?



ps: I also tried



lz@vm:~/orwell$ cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-isystem /home/lz/Qt5.11.2/5.11.2/gcc_64/lib .


This way it will use the include path but not the lib path



I also added the path /home/lz/Qt5.11.2/5.11.2/gcc_64/lib to ldconfig but it seems it linked only a few libs, not all of them:



/home/lz/Qt5.11.2/5.11.2/gcc_64/lib:
libQt5QuickControls2.so.5 -> libQt5QuickControls2.so.5.11.2
libQt5OpenGL.so.5 -> libQt5OpenGL.so.5.11.2

libQt5Bluetooth.so.5 -> libQt5Bluetooth.so.5.11.2

  • @kenn I did it and received the warning CMake Warning: Manually-specified variables were not used by the project: QTROOT and also it didn't compile

  • @steeldriver I modified the CMakeFiles to be done in the right way. And then did cmake -DQt5_DIR=/home/lz/Qt5.11.2 . but the problem persists
