Hi Christian, I finally got the plugin to load. What was missing was the correct initialization in QNitpickerIntegration. I have added the missing parts to load the QPlatformInputContext [1] and it now finds the qtvirtualkeyboardplugin.
It isn't completely working yet but at least the application shows up. What is missing are the dependencies. They require additional shared libs. I tried to create the according make fragments with your script but after applying qtbase_generated.patch the configure script fails to generate qmake with > You cannot make a shadow build from a source tree containing a previous build. on a clean (except that patch) source tree. Do you have any idea about that?
