[Buildroot] bug in package/qt5/qt5base/qt5base.mk ?

[David Picard]

Hi,

If BR2_PACKAGE_QTBASE_CONFIG_FILE is set, qt5base.mk calls Qt's 
configure utility with the '-config' option, which is not recognized by 
configure. Also, I couldn't find an equivalent option.

My suggestion would be to replace the original 
$(@D)/src/corelib/global/qconfig.h with the file pointed to by 
BR2_PACKAGE_QTBASE_CONFIG_FILE. What do you think ?

You mean BR2_PACKAGE_QT5BASE_CONFIG_FILE and '-qconfig' and yes
it is the Qt-5.6.x (still present as a choice in buildroot) way
for fain grained configure...

The modern way (since Qt-5.8) is via the config.opt file
and configure -redo (see [1])...
