Yep, I love Unix/Linux. Everything is so easy there. :-D Nevertheless, do you think this is worth a bug report? From the error message, it is probably a fixed path in generated code, which ignores the -prefix. I am very surprised that nobody reported this problem, yet. I doubt that I am the first one, who over tried to compile Qt 5.2.1 from the sources. > > If there isn't > > something I miss, it cannot be properly out of source build. > > Yes, it can.

Ok, ok, true, but only words. Of course 'install-out-of-build' is IMHO absolutely necessary. > > Due to > > absolute paths it cannot be easily moved.

I can live with not being able to install it out of build, too... but now not being able to do either of both, is a bit too inconvenient. And this is definitely not so for 15 years. ;-) Guido _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
