Whilst we haven't been tracking bugs in meta-qt5 in this bugzilla, that may be changing in the near future so I'm leaving this open for now. Otavio is this something you're prepared to look into? If not feel free to reassign to unassigned. Yes, I can look at it but this will need to be by the end of month as I will be out from August 12th to 25th. is this still an issue? We are not tracking meta-qt5 in this bugzilla. See the README for that layer. |
Created attachment 2630 [details] Environment and error bitbake error output I'm building a static version of Qt by replacing '-shared' with '-static' to qtbase_git.bb. I try to build the SDK with `$ bitbake meta-toolchain-qt5`. I receive a few 'ERROR: QA Issue: qtsvg: Files/directories were installed but not shipped' concerning the generated paths: /usr/lib/qt5/plugins /usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats /usr/lib/qt5/plugins/iconengines /usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqsvg.a /usr/lib/qt5/plugins/imageformats/libqsvg.prl /usr/lib/qt5/plugins/iconengines/libqsvgicon.prl .... Please note that these paths are incorrect and should be prefixed by the cross compile system root path. Subsequent attempts to compile later packages fail when they cannot locate the appropriate libraries since the lib path is incorrect. Reinstating '-shared' omits any errors and the SDK is built correctly with a dynamically linked Qt. Is it possible to build Qt that is statically linked?
