Hi, I am trying to compile Qt 4.8 for ARMv8. I need following packages.
libqt4-dev libqt4-opengl-dev libphonon-dev libicu-dev libsqlite3-dev libxext-dev libxrender-dev gperf libfontconfig1-dev libphonon-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg62-dev
I could not find these or any such packages on Linaro website. Is there any website which maintains packages compiled for ARMv8?
I downloaded Qt4.8 source code. But it seems I need to do many hacks to get it compiled for ARMv8. Is it already available some where?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Aparna

You need more than the source packages. You need to port Qt to ARMv8.

No, it isn't available anywhere.

If you want to start the port, you'd better start looking into Qt5 instead. See qtbase module: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtbase/trees/stable/src/corelib/arch http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtbase/trees/stable/mkspecs
Have fun!
Thanks Aparna

We have already ported Qt4 for ARMv8. You can compile Qt4 with all the necessary patches using OpenEmbedded, following the instructions at;
https://wiki.linaro.org/HowTo/ARMv8/OpenEmbedded
Instead of "bitbake bash" you would run "bitbake qt4-x11-free"
