The error message reads like Qt5OpenGL may be missing. Please check if the libqt5opengl5-dev package is installed and if not install it and retry. Normally I think it would be installed together with qtbase5-dev, at least that's my experience on Ubuntu so far, so not sure why it would be missing but it's worth a try.

Edit: it looks like libqt5opengl5-dev is only a recommended dependency of qtbase5-dev and it's possible that your apt is configured to not install recommends.

okay a apt install of libqt5opengl5-dev fixed the problem its now able to make, and it booted into the UI and a game, thank you. do you think we could change the build guide for ubuntu/deb to include libqt5opengl5-dev

Yes, I updated the compilation guide.
