Hello,

 

I am trying to build 1.12.2 on windows 7 machine (both 32-bit and 64-bit). I am getting the following warning:

 

nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools

 

Can't find Qt. This will become a problem at some point.

 

What should be the solution to it?


Hi Vishnu,

as stated in the warning, it will be a problem *at some point* but we have not reached this point yet (Qt GUI is simply not mature in the 1.12 branch). So you can safely ignore this warning (even the official 1.12.2 does not bundle Qt GUI anymore) as it will not prevent to build the GTK UI and installer.
Maybe we should remove this warning in master-1.12 branch to avoid confusion.

Pascal.
