So here's the thing: I downloaded the Qt 4.7 tar and I'm installing on Ubuntu 16. I unzip the downloaded folder and installed all libs that were preventing me to run the ./configure
After I could run the configure, the make runs but get an error at some point. Here's what I get when I run 'make configure' or 'make':
root#ubuntu:/home/gimenes/Downloads/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0# make configure

I read that maybe possibly perform construction msvc or try mingw64 but I need it on Windows 32 with platform win32-g++
You really can not build this version with win32 and win32-g++ platform??
Any suggestions please, welcome any help.
SOLUTION.................................................................................................................................................
You can compile QT 5.5.1 with MinGW-64 project.
This project also works on 32 bits.
It´s not possible to compile with the "typical" version minimalist, neither changing the libraries. MinGW-64 project is not available from MinGW Installation Manager, I do not understand this and dislike me as an advocate for alternatives like mingw, I could always download from this manager all I need, now this manager... should improve.
After installing MinGW-64 project in all programs MinGW-64 project Run terminal
cd pathQTconfigure
configure -static -release -opensource –platform win32-g++ -opengl desktop
mingw-make
THANKS TO ALL :)
I am trying to compile the wkhtmltopdf with patched qt using these instructions and when i get to the make && make install it gives me an error has anyone else done this on Ubuntu 14.04? I can't figure out what to do from here.
these are the instructions i am following i know they are not for 14.04 but i hoped they would have worked https://gist.github.com/Zauberfisch/8773593
This is the error i get:

I downloaded a binary from their site that already had the QT build and that fixed the issue for me. Thanks!
I have started using QT on Kubuntu. I first installed g++ via Package Manager. Then I installed QT 5.0.1. I then made a test project to check if everything is correct or not. Then I got following issues.
- cannot find -lGL
- collect2: error:Id returned 1 exit status
I saw in Compile Output

Please help me fix these errors.
Qt != QT
The error tells you what is wrong, the compiler cannot find libGL.so. It's usually in /usr/lib64.
Compiling on Fedora 10.
I am using qt for the first time. I started by creating a simple GUI application with all the default settings. When I tried to build the project I got the following error messages.
However, when I did a search for -lfreetype I found it in the following directory.
/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6
/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.3.18
Is there anyway to resolve this issue?
Many thanks for any advice

You have to install the freetype-devel package. The devel package contains the header files which in the case of freetype shoud be located at: /usr/include/freetype.
I had the same problem on Ubuntu 8.10, QT 4.5. I "fixed" it with the following bizarre hack:
After the build fails, rename the QT lib directory to something else - e.g. "mv ../../qtsdk-2009.01/qt/lib ../../qtsdk-2009.01/qt/lib2"
Run "make" again, and it will fail again.
Restore the lib directory
Run "make" again, and now it works.
I have no idea why this happens.
Install freetype1-dev libgtk2.0-dev
and it will compile ok.
On Ubuntu 9.04, installing freetype1-dev & libgtk2.0-dev solves this problem.
But to surprise everyone the hack mentioned by Ross also works, I would really like to know how and why.. M looking into the source code of QTcreator to see if i can find out the reason why. If any one already know the reason, please let me know.
Thanks..
Just installed a newly fresh ubuntu 9.04 (dell D820)- installed qt creator nothing else - same problem
use option from S R that works because it needs libgtk2.0-dev (this will also load freetype6 ) installed from package manager.
Same effect you will see if you also install qt designer from package manager (it will install all the right packages

I had same problems with Elive, freetype1-dev and libgtk2.0-dev and for the /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lSM thing xorg-dev fixed the problem.
The first thing you have to make sure is that you have libfreetype.so installed in your computer. Use the command 'locate libfreetype.so', and you may find there is a '/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6' in the result. The compile software can't identify libfreetype.so.6 as a shared library, so, you have to make a symbolic link to the target. Use the command 'ln -s /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 /usr/lib/libfreetype.so', when you compile the program again, you will find the error had gone. You can also solve the errors likely. Good Luck!
