So I do not know anything about qmake or qt and I am having some troubles. So I will go ahead and share what information I have about my system and errors I am getting. I am running on Linux Mint 16 petra. It came with qmake in this directory: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin. I installed qt /Qt/5.2.1 and went to this directory /Qt/5.2.1/Src/qtbase and ran ./configure. After that it gave me an error so i added ./configure -qt-xcb. From here I had a new qmake 5.2.0 in /usr/local/Qt-5.2.0/bin. qmake --version still shows up as: QMake version 3.0 Using Qt version 5.0.2 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

I then from here went to /cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin and typed the following: sudo qmake sudo make sudo make install make install gave me the following: install -m 755 -p "libkdekonsole.so" "/home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/imports/org/kde/konsole/libkdekonsole.so" strip --strip-unneeded "/home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/imports/org/kde/konsole/libkdekonsole.so" install -m 644 -p /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/src/qmldir /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/../imports/org/kde/konsole/ install -m 644 -p /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/src/plugins.qmltypes /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/../imports/org/kde/konsole/ cp -f -R /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/assets/color-schemes /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/../imports/org/kde/konsole/ cp -f -R /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/assets/kb-layouts /home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/konsole-qml-plugin/../imports/org/kde/konsole/

From here I went to /cool-old-term and typed sudo ./cool-old-term and get: file:///home/wesman6960/cool-old-term/app/main.qml:21 module "QtQuick" version 2.2 is not installed

I dont know if any of the information above gives you any idea but I dont know how to set path libraries or any of that stuff. If I could have a step by step instruction of what I need to do that would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for your time!

Ok. First of all I'm not sure of how you got Qt libraries. The version in mint 16 repositories is 5.0 but for this program 5.2 are required. The best way to get them is to download precompiled binaries from here: http://download.qt-project.org/archive/qt/5.2/5.2.1/ (There are some problems with Qt 5.3 at the moment) and install them. Once you have the library installed (or compiled from source) you have to tell the shell to use those binaries instead of the one preinstalled (this is the problem you had with qmake showing the wrong version):

export PATH=/opt/Qt5.2.1/5.2/gcc_64/bin/:$PATH (replace /opt/Qt5.2.1/5.2/gcc_64/bin/ with your folder if needed)

Now qmake -v should see the right version of the libraries. Relaunch cool-old-term.

Hope this helps... Let me know if you succeed...

@wesman6960 did it eventually work out? Please let us know how it went so we can help you further or close this issue.

@Swordifish90 , his account seems empty; AFAIK he created it just for commenting here. I've had my share of people who abandoned issues so if he doesn't respond after a while could you consider closing this issue? Another reason would be because this problem is too localized and, apparently, was only a matter of installing Qt5.2

For the reasons stated by @alexdantas I'm closing this issue. Feel free to comment again if the problem is not fixed.
