I had qt-5.5.0 working in /opt/qt5, but I really don't like using
/opt for something which is unlikely to change during the active
life of the system (6 months or less), and when I built kde5
(5.11.0) in /opt/kf5 I was unable to run it from sddm.

So, on a test system without an existing Qt5 I tried adding qt5 and
kde5 in /usr and failed in kidletime-5.12.0 with

'isPlatformX11' is not a member of 'QX11Info' -
http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/blfs-dev/2015-August/030684.html

and in the end I assumed something in the build had broken (I had
earlier put qt4 in /usr) and gave up.

Last night on a fresh qemu build I was unable to link qupzilla and
initially assumed it must be a gcc-5.2 problem (I'm sure you've all
read the post, I won't link to it), or else a mis-install of qt (the
box, with kernel-4.2.0-rc6 and qupzilla-2.4.0 was flakey).

Today, I've gone back to qupzilla-2.3.0 and a 4.1.3 kernel.  The box
has now been up for 6 hours, and running qemu for all-but 6 hours,
so my guess is that qemu-2.4.0 might be the main cause of the
flakiness.  But not the cause of the Qt5 problems.  I took the base
system I had built yesterday (without Qt5) and started trying to
build Qt5 and lxqt.  In kwindowsystem it fails in
src/kusertimestamp.cpp with
 error 'getTimestamp' is not a member of 'QX11Info'.
  time = QX11Info::getTimestamp();

which is to all intents and purposes the same problem.

Perhaps Qt 5.5 is now really antagonistic to being built in /usr
(unlike 5.4.2 which apparently supported that), or perhaps I just
have bad karma.  Whichever, I cannot build with qt5 in /usr so I am
giving up on qt5 for the moment.

As a consequence, because I cannot build lxqt I will NOT be making
the changes to provide for using $LXQT_PREFIX.  Sorry.
