Compile errors on RHEL8

Can't seem to compile on RHEL8 or CentOS8:

configure: WARNING: Qt pkg-config failed, using fallback defaults ( -lQtCore -lQtGui )

indicates the problem...

After the 2.4.0 release I dropped the qt4 support. If compiling worked in the past, you should checkout the RELEASE.2.4.0 tag. Otherwise you need to install the "qt5-devel" package, me thinks.

It's installed: rpm -qa | grep qt5 qt5-rpm-macros-5.12.5-3.el8.noarch qt5-srpm-macros-5.12.5-3.el8.noarch qt5-qtbase-gui-5.12.5-8.el8.x86_64 qt5-qtbase-postgresql-5.12.5-8.el8.x86_64 qt5-qttools-common-5.12.5-3.el8.noarch qt5-qtbase-common-5.12.5-8.el8.noarch qt5-linguist-5.12.5-3.el8.x86_64 qt5-qtbase-5.12.5-8.el8.x86_64 qt5-qtbase-mysql-5.12.5-8.el8.x86_64 qt5-qtbase-devel-5.12.5-8.el8.x86_64 qt5-qtsvg-5.12.5-1.el8.x86_64

That error was fixed by installing qt5-qttools-devel for me.

@dogukancagatay That did the trick! Thank You so much. I added a note on your github also, in case someone else does not get here with the same problem!

@dogukancagatay thank you. I came here because of the same error but in Ubuntu 20.04 so you gave me the clue for the right package to install in my system and in Ubuntu/Debian it is qttools5-dev
