Build is not possible on Raspberry Pi 64 bit Bullseye

[phomer60]

I get the following error when installing the prerequisites because I am asked to install obsolete software.

sudo apt -y install git cmake qt5-default libcfitsio-dev libgsl-dev wcslib-dev Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Package qt5-default is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

E: Package 'qt5-default' has no installation candidate Paul

qt5-default is obsolete?? does everyone have to switch now to qt6?? I don't think that craft or the PPA for kstars are currently using qt6 yet and I know I haven't even tried qt6. I don't know if that would break anything.

I found a reference online to say it was obsoleted but I do not know how accurate it is.

I checked kstars and I cannot see any requirement to install qt5-default.

It's definitely not obsolete. The package was renamed, that's all. qtbase5-dev ..etc

Jasem, It is easy to find the wrong information on the internet :) I changed the install to use your suggestion and things appear to have worked. Paul

Ok I will edit the instructions to reflect this change. Do we know if all machines should use this new package, or is it just a few ubuntu versions?

Ok I just edited it.
