The day before yesterday I cloned git://gitorious.org/qt/qt.git (commit d8473681955bd96f8dd9cb22ad2597a9b7479d80) and can't build it. It builds qmake successfully but when it gets to building moc I get this error:

g++ -Wl,-rpath-link,/Users/eyurchen/dev/BB/qt-arm-48-ndk2.0/qt/lib -headerpad_max_install_names -o ../../../bin/moc release-shared/moc.o release-shared/preprocessor.o release-shared/generator.o release-shared/parser.o release-shared/token.o release-shared/main.o    -L/Users/eyurchen/dev/BB/qt-arm-48-ndk2.0/qt/src/tools/bootstrap -lbootstrap -framework CoreServices

make[1]: Leaving directory `/Users/eyurchen/dev/BB/qt-arm-48-ndk2.0/qt/src/tools/moc'
make: *** [sub-moc-make_default-ordered] Error 2

Used this configure:

./configure -opensource -confirm-license -qpa -iconv -shared -release -xplatform blackberry-armv7le-qcc -little-endian -arch arm -largefile -nomake examples -xmlpatterns -no-webkit -no-rpath -opengl es2 -reduce-exports -system-sqlite -prefix stage/nto/armle-v7/usr/lib/qt4 -no-neon

Anybody?

Thanks.

Which version of gcc are you using please? Any reason to not use clang? Are you able to build Qt for the desktop (i.e. not cross compiling - although I don't think it has gotten that far yet before you encounter this issue)?

>Which version of gcc are you using please?

gcc version 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)

>Any reason to not use clang?

I am sorry I have no idea what clan is. I think compiler is choosed durin ./configure run.

No, I have not tried as I don't need Qt on the host, I need it on Playbook. And Qt build cloned on Aug 30 (last commit 9520674b0f02aac55da6d98a6c56c74ce240cca6) was building without any problem!

You're using -no-rpath here:
./configure -opensource -confirm-license -qpa -iconv -shared -release -xplatform blackberry-armv7le-qcc -little-endian -arch arm -largefile -nomake examples -xmlpatterns -no-webkit -no-rpath -opengl es2 -reduce-exports -system-sqlite -prefix stage/nto/armle-v7/usr/lib/qt4 -no-neon

but -rpath-link is needed in g++

But I am just following procedure published here http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building-Qt4-for-Blackberry and it worked for me a month ago. Regardless I tried to remove option -no-rpath and reconfigure and interestingly enough got the same error:

I plan on looking into this more tomorrow but I received the same error today after updating from git. I was able to fix it by reverting a patch submitted recently by peter-h regarding blackberry compiler options.

Thanks a lot. The patch fixed the problem.
