I did reproduce this build failure, and even if GStreamer is built before Qt5 (which is the case in the build failure you're linking in the commit log), Qt5 concludes that GStreamer is not available. And this is because for some reason, Qt5 now seems to ignore the PKG_CONFIG environment variable that we pass to it. I've added some debugging messages to the packagesExist() function, and it uses just "pkg-config" (i.e the system pkg-config, not the one built and installed by Buildroot in $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin). While I think that your patch should be applied (it's good to make optional dependencies explicit), I also think the pkg-config problem should be investigated and fixed.
