Does anyone know how to compile Livius under Linux? The readme on Github (see
https://github.com/kmar/livius ) is not helpful and just says to run make and that Qt5 is required. However, make aborts with:
Code: Select all
Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: core gui widgets
In my package manager, I see that these packages are installed:
libqt5core5a (Qt 5 core module)
libqt5gui5 (Qt 5 GUI module)
libqt5widgets5 (Qt 5 widgets module)

Sorry, I haven't tried in years, IIRC back then someone sent me a PR with a new makefile so I simply merged it into master

Turned out I needed to install also the following (plus lots of dependences suggested by the package manager):
qtdeclarative5-dev (Qt 5 declarative development files)
qtdeclarative5-dev-tools (Qt 5 declarative development programs)
libqt5svg5-dev (Qt 5 SVG module development files)
The required packages could be described more in detail in the readme.
