What difficulty does exist at compiling QScintilla.

I have installed my built qt5 (5.6.1) to /usr/local.
Make of QScintilla at Qt4Qt5 seemed correctly pick up include files and  
library in /usr/local.

I made symbolic link.

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libqscintilla2.so.12.0.2 
/usr/local/lib/libqscintilla2-qt5.so

and execute configure and make.
Part of configure output

  Qt libraries:                -lQt5Network -lQt5OpenGL -lQt5PrintSupport 
-lQt5Widgets -lQt5Gui -lQt5Core   -lqscintilla2-qt5

That seems correct.

At make 

  GEN      libgui/src/ui-settings-dialog.h
Unknown option 'qt5'.


Does anyone know what
  GEN      libgui/src/ui-settings-dialog.h
are done to generate libgui/src/ui-settings-dialog.h ?
