Hi,
After some hacking to add missing link directories and move pkgconfig
files around, I confirm that LXQt works in FreeBSD. I'll post a
screenshot to blog later.

Here are tips to get them work.

* Update all components to the latest code in git with the fixes.
* May need to pass --sysconf=/etc to autotool-based projects
* May need to pass -DLXQT_ETC_XDG_DIR=/etc/xdg to cmake for
CMake-based projects, so the config files are installed to the right
place.
* Use GNU make (aka gmake) for all autotool based projects is
mandatory. (CMake projects should just work)
* Omit lxqt-powermanagement, which is Linux-only at the moment.

With this procedure, I got LXQt built and running on FreeBSD in a VM.
The "removable device" and "volume control" applets of lxqt-panel are
not working as the first requires udisks and the later is using alsa,
which are Linux-only.
I'll add an OSS-based volume control implemention soon.

p.s.: CLang is really an awesome compiler! It generates much better
error messages than gcc and I fixed several errors of pcmanfm-qt which
are not reported by gcc. We should definitely try to compile
everything with clang for double check.

Cheers!
