Quoting Thiago Macieira:


This error is still present in current sources. It's no different than any
compilation error and should be fixed. So, yes, we don't verify that
everything builds with C++11. When I say that Qt supports C++11, I mean that
we'll fix it if issues are found. And besides, you built over 99.9% of Qt with
C++11.

But, automated testing should. This is one of the few places an automated test is actually useful. Making sure the advertised minimum compilation standard really does work.

While we are on the subject of automated testing, I wish I had the configure statement and the version number, but, one of the "current" (as in newer than 5.9.7) built without the c++11 standard has another inexcusable bug automated testing should have stopped. After configure and make -j3 I issued make install and make install compiled a ton-o-*(^*(&^. I know this because I saw all of the compilation warnings spewing past on the screen

If make install builds even one module, that is an __epic fail__. It means two things.

1) the make script is incorrect
2) that configure is now being completely ignored

make install, when run after make, should never ever launch the compiler. If it does there is a serious problem which will be very difficult to track down later.


Just drop the -c++std argument from your configure line. It doesn't help your
case and only made the build break because this particular module wasn't
tested with that option.


Not physically an answer. Forcing c++11 is the only thing which will make the loadable on 18.04 and later. The C/C++ ABI changes torpedo everything built by default. The _only_ solution was to drop back to 5.9.7 and use the configure statement which was in the message I cannot seem to find in the archives right now, might be lag, might be censorship, might be I'm just too blind. They really should have saved that bug report email. Especially the configure statement. It took weeks to find that. At the peak I had 5 machines, 2 I-5, 2 I-7 and a 6-core AMD running through the combinations. It didn't take anywhere near that balancing act when I did this same project some 3 years ago.

If your application runs on Ubuntu desktops using QWebEngine and you need "One Deb to Install Them All" from 14 through 18+, that's the configure you need. Without forcing the c++11 standard, you have no hope. I tried every standard setting and lots of different configure statements trying to thread the needle of the C/C++ ABI changes finding one which could build on 14.04 and run on the later.

Probably should have posted the previous configure statement too. Last time we had to build on 15.04 and carry the binary backwards because nothing built on 12.04 could be made to go forward. At least not by any of us. I forget how many machines we had searching for the magic combination which did not exist.
