Description Andrew Hou 2020-02-29 17:19:06 UTC 
SUMMARY

When attempting to build kuserfeedback, the build is looking for a qt4 version of qmllint at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmllint instead of the qt5 version, which exists on my system at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qmllint

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Setup KDE dev environment, necessary dependencies
2. kdesrc-build kuserfeedback --resume-from kuserfeedback

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Volker Krause 2020-03-03 09:41:10 UTC 
The Qt4 path isn't coming from kuserfeedback, all that's done there is `find_program(QMLLINT_EXECUTABLE qmllint)` (ie. find qmllint in $PATH).

What does "which qmllint" report in the shell you tried to build this? My guess would be a symlink to the non-existent Qt4 path.
Comment 2 Andrew Hou 2020-03-03 13:26:29 UTC 
Ah, I think you're right.

qmllint is in /usr/bin and symlinked to /usr/bin/qtchooser, which looks like it has "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin" set as QTTOOLDIR, so that's definitely what the issue was
Comment 3 Andrew Hou 2020-03-03 13:31:58 UTC 
Installing qt5-default from apt fixed it and kuserfeedback now successfully builds
