error with SDK that supports Qt creator

Hello,

I am building SDK using populate_sdk that support Qt creator.

All are configured correctly except Qt version is considered invalid after adding qmake from <sysroots>/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin.

Further check discovers this result:

Obviously it doesn't point to the correct path. Qt libraries are in <sysroots>/usr/lib directory. What might be the cause?

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks!

qt.conf is missing.
But after adding qt.conf, Qt creators reports " *Qt version is not properly installed, please run make install".*
*"qmake -query" returns valid absolte paths.*
*qt tools moc, rcc and uic are present.*
*Still missing files.*

*"bitbake <image> -c populate_sdk" or "bitbake meta-toolchain-qt5" should be used?*

Thanks!

you need to inherit populate_sdk_qt5|6 in the image which is used to
build the SDK
I think building meta-toolchain-qt5 or meta-toolchain-qt6 sets up the
toolchain with
right bits

Thanks Raj.

I am building meta-toolchain-qt5 and come across this error and couldn't find the solution.
Doing "-c cleanall" on the recipe qtxmlpatterns doesn't work for this error.
Any idea?

Tried to clean uninative-tarball and built it again. And it seems not working to address this.

It doesn't work for meta-toolchain-qt5 somehow.
Chang to meta-toolchain-qt6 and it works fine.
