x11/qt5/qtbase 5.15.19pl0p0 OpenBSD

Qt is a cross-platform toolkit for developing applications, mainly GUI-based.

There are some user documentation files in ${QT_DOC}, but the main documentation is in the qt5-html package.

There is also a qt5-examples package, that contains tutorial, demos simple example programs (source + binaries).

There's a debug version of the libraries: qt5-debug.

There are database plugins: qt5-mysql, qt5-postgresql and qt5-tds.

People who want to use Qt5 to compile applications outside the ports tree should note that Qt5's installation conforms to OpenBSD habits, not TrollTech's recommendations. Accordingly:

• libs are separated from includes.
• moc is installed as ${PREFIX}/bin/moc-qt5, in order not to conflict with other Qt versions.
• uic is installed as ${PREFIX}/bin/uic-qt5

Generally, it's just a question of invoking:

env MOC=moc-qt5 UIC=uic-qt5 configure \ --with-qt-includes=${PREFIX}/include/X11/qt5 \ --with-qt-libraries=${PREFIX}/lib/qt5

... or, to force MOC/UIC in your make/gmake invocation:

make MOC=moc-qt5 UIC=uic-qt5

will override the Makefile contents.
