error compiling BNC v2.13.1 on Ubuntu 24.04 with QT5

[garyli@…]

HI,

I'm compiling BNC v2.13.1 on Ubuntu 24.04 with QT5. From docker file, looks like "debian 12" is supported, but Ubuntu 24.04 uses "debian 13". Should I move to Ubuntu 22.04?

Here is the error:
g++ -c -pipe -O2 -fPIC -Wall -Wextra -D_REENTRANT -DQWT_NO_OPENGL -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_PRINTSUPPORT_LIB -DQT_WIDGETS_LIB -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CONCURRENT_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -I. -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5 -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtPrintSupport -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtWidgets -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtGui -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtConcurrent -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtCore -I.moc -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/mkspecs/linux-g++ -o .obj/qwt_symbol.o qwt_symbol.cpp

I think I got the QT5 SVG package installed:
sudo apt install libqt5svg5-dev

libqt5svg5-dev is already the newest version (5.15.13-1).
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

linux-headers-6.8.0-47 linux-tools-6.8.0-47

Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.

In case of a correct installation the above commandline should contain " -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtSvg". You should verify if /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/ really contains the correct directories and files.

If everything is correct I'd suggest to resetup the source directory. Maybe some previous state is cached.

see Dockerfile.trixie
As you said, 24.04 is based on debian13 (trixie). Only difference to bookworm is to use just "qmake" instead of "qmake -qt=5".
