Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

Hi Guys,

latest ./configure script is totally broken on Ubuntu Server 16.04.02LTS. Last time I compiled the source in ~April on this box (Vbox 5.1.51 r66518/Qt5.5.1) and it worked fine. Pls find below details. Looked into it now for 2-3 hours but can't find an easy fix, any help is highly welcome.

Installed packages:
subversion build-essential bcc iasl xsltproc uuid-dev zlib1g-dev libidl-dev libsdl1.2-dev libxcursor-dev libasound2-dev libstdc++5 libpulse-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev pyqt5-dev-tools libqt5opengl5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools libcap-dev libxmu-dev mesa-common-dev libglu1-mesa-dev linux-libc-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libpam0g-dev libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev libqt5opengl5-dev makeself libdevmapper-dev default-jdk texlive-latex-base texlive-latex-extra texlive-latex-recommended texlive-fonts-extra texlive-fonts-recommended lib32ncurses5 lib32z1 libc6-dev-i386 lib32gcc1 gcc-multilib lib32stdc++6 g++-multilib genisoimage libvpx-dev qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools libqt5x11extras5-dev libssl-dev python-all-dev xfce4 xfce4-goodies firefox vim

Removed the pasted configure.log file and the e-mail address. Is it really that hard to find the Attach file button?

I admit that the configure script needs some additional tests but reporting that the script is totally broken is wrong.

The missing package is libqt5core5a which is easy to find out by doing

$ apt-get install apt-file
$ apt-file update
$ apt-file search Qt5Core
