I don’t know anything about CentOS, but these days I happen to build subsurface 
on Macs which only have homebrew which should be much more basic than any Linux 
distribution package manager. But here, I just have to install a few libraries 
(namely, quoting from the INSTALL file  asciidoc libzip sqlite cmake libusb 
pkg-config automake libtool), then, and I admit that is a bit painful, install 
Qt5 from sources and all the rest is (or at least should be) handled by the 
subsurface build script (in scripts/build.sh). I don’t have to set any 
environment variable, fix paths or such. I am surprised the experience is so 
much different for you.

Best
Robert
