openroad build can't find_package(Qt5)

Open WS-Snyder opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

cmake .. indicates that Qt5 can't be found; tho Qt5 and qtcreator are working fine. There is no findqt5.cmake but there is a findqt4.cmake from a previous install. research indicates that qt5 no longer uses findxxx.cmake. Is there a way to force the build to create a gui version, maybe using the qtpaths shell command?

What version of cmake do you have? Is your qt 5in the default location?

The failure of cmake to build a GUI version is 100 % caused by find_packages(Qt5) is return the paths(s).

I used cmake version 3.18.4 on Debian 11 (bullseye).

I will rebuild the entire tree on an Ubuntu 20.04.4 version and see if the problem is resolved.

Thanks Warren

Where is your QT installed? If it is in a non-default location it may be that find_packages can't find it.
