[cmake-developers] CMake: Compile error: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQt5::WinMain

[Eric Noulard]

Hi all,

Current master  and 3.0.0-rc2 give compile error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lQt5::WinMain
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

This is on Debian Jessie 64bit linux box,
with gcc 4.8.2 compiler

git bisect leads me to

61c60b239c0ddc5eb975bb9cc3721b792a2aa18f is the first bad commit
commit 61c60b239c0ddc5eb975bb9cc3721b792a2aa18f

    QtDialog: Avoid linking to Qt4 WinMain when using Qt 5.

    Override the QT_QTMAIN_LIBRARY cache variable with a regular
    variable in the Qt 5 configuration. This avoids linking with the
    Qt 4 version of the WinMain library.
