How to set up the QT environment

Developer
1

I was trying to follow along the developer documentation in the repository and it says to install Qt 5.15.2

When following the link to Qt website, the version is too old and they don’t provide downloads for it. On top of that the default debian repositories do not seem to have it either.

What is the recommented way to install the old Qt version in this case?

Assuming you’ve got the Qt maintence tool setup, you have to select archive or search for 5.15,2:

I totally missed the archive selector :sweat_smile: went looking in the ci pipeline for how the build containers handle it

Were you able to find the 5.15.2 Qt?

Yes, I’m trying it out now

I got the build to work and all is well :smiley: any chance someone is using a different IDE other than Qt? I am more familiar with the jetbrains clion ide and for that I need to make a CMakeLists.txt file from what I understand. Perhaps someone already has one ready to go

Not anyone Seamly related that I’m aware of.
