Re: missing:qcollectiongenerator qhelpgenerator

[Carlos Davila]

Thank you, qt5-doc-tools was the correct package. I ran "make" from within the "~/Downloads/octave-4.4.0" directory and got:

can't read ~/Downloads/octave-4.4.0/liboctave/liboctave.la: No such file or directory

error: '.../octave-4.4.0/liboctave/liboctave.la' is not a valid libtool archive

I checked that directory and liboctave.la is present. I am trying "./configure", and "make", (and planned to do "make install") from within the octave-4.4.0" directory. Could this be the problem?

Hello,

I am trying to install octave (v 4.4.0) from source on Cygwin. After installing most dependencies, ./config gives:

Build Octave Qt GUI:                  no (missing:qcollectiongenerator qhelpgenerator)

However these appear to have already been installed, from package qt4-debuginfo.  The following directories exist:

/usr/src/debug/qt4-4.8.7-3/tools/assistant/tools/qcollectiongenerator/

/usr/src/debug/qt4-4.8.7-3/tools/assistant/tools/qhelpconverter/

Would appreciate any suggestions.

Carlos

you need the develelopment packages.
/usr/src/debug is for *debuginfo packages content

You can identify the package using "cygcheck"
$ cygcheck -p qhelpconverter
Found 10 matches for qhelpconverter
qt4-debuginfo-4.8.7-3 - qt4-debuginfo: ..
qt4-debuginfo-4.8.7-4 - qt4-debuginfo: ..
qt4-devel-tools-4.8.7-3 - qt4-devel-tools: Qt4 Assistant, Designer, and Linguist (installed binaries and support files)
qt4-devel-tools-4.8.7-4 - qt4-devel-tools: Qt4 Assistant, Designer, and Linguist (installed binaries and support files)
qt5-doc-tools-5.9.2-1 - qt5-doc-tools: Qt C++ application framework (development tools) (documentation generators)
qt5-doc-tools-5.9.3-1 - qt5-doc-tools: Qt C++ application framework (development tools) (documentation generators)
qt5-doc-tools-5.9.4-1 - qt5-doc-tools: Qt C++ application framework (development tools) (documentation generators)
qt5-tools-debuginfo-5.9.2-1 - qt5-tools-debuginfo: ..
qt5-tools-debuginfo-5.9.3-1 - qt5-tools-debuginfo: ..
qt5-tools-debuginfo-5.9.4-1 - qt5-tools-debuginfo: ..

So "qt4-devel-tools" and "qt5-doc-tools"

You should be able to build also with Qt5.
I just build 4.4.1-rc1 with QT5

Marco
