qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.5.1 installation on MACOSX El Capitan

Just got round to updating MacBookPro and trying to set up coding environment again. I am failing to 'make' qt, which I need to generate GUI's for pythonic programs. I have installed latest version of xcode, and after ~20hours of 'make' having followed installation proceedure on http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/install-mac.html the make routine bombs and I get the following:

FAILED: if [ ! -e ffmpegsumo.so -o ! -e ffmpegsumo.so.TOC ] || otool -l ffmpegsumo.so | grep -q LC_REEXPORT_DYLIB ; then /usr/bin/clang++ -bundle -Wl,-search_paths_first -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7 -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk -Lgen/third_party/ffmpeg -arch x86_64 -L. -o ffmpegsumo.so @ffmpegsumo.so.rsp && { otool -l ffmpegsumo.so | grep LC_ID_DYLIB -A 5; nm -gP ffmpegsumo.so | cut -f1-2 -d' ' | grep -v U$; true; } > ffmpegsumo.so.TOC; else /usr/bin/clang++ -bundle -Wl,-search_paths_first -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7 -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk -Lgen/third_party/ffmpeg -arch x86_64 -L. -o ffmpegsumo.so @ffmpegsumo.so.rsp && { otool -l ffmpegsumo.so | grep LC_ID_DYLIB -A 5; nm -gP ffmpegsumo.so | cut -f1-2 -d' ' | grep -v U$; true; } > ffmpegsumo.so.tmp && if ! cmp -s ffmpegsumo.so.tmp ffmpegsumo.so.TOC; then mv ffmpegsumo.so.tmp ffmpegsumo.so.TOC ; fi; fi

Looks like the MacOSX 10.11 SDK has tbd files in place of the dylib files. If you cat the dbd's it gives you the path where the dylib should be.

Anyway, it looks like glennr was on the right track. You have to put in symbolic links to the dylib that are missing. Building everything but webkit, it seemed to need libresolv.dylib, libbsm.dylib, libcups.dylib, and libz.dylib.

In terminal navigate to /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk/usr/lib

Then perform the following shell commands

ln -s /usr/lib/libcups.dylib
ln -s /usr/lib/libbsm.dylib
ln -s /usr/lib/libresolv.dylib
ls -s /usr/lib/libz.dylib

That should create symbolic links to the dylib in /usr/lib.

This seems to work when your building the library on 10.11 and targetting the same SDK. I'm not sure it'll give you the right results if your running on an older or newer version, because then the version of the dylib may not match.

In the OSX 10.11 SDK libz.dylib is not where the Qt build process expects it to be. This will need to be fixed in the Qt build system. A workaround is to symlink it from /usr/lib:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libz.dylib /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk/usr/lib/
