[Qgis-developer] Problems building for QT5

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi Giovanni,

There are two possibilities

 * PyQt4 with Qt5
 * PyQt5 with Qt5

Neither of them are tested with QGIS. At the time I ported the code they
were not available for my distro and I didn't compile them myself.
I assume PyQt4/Qt5 should work pretty smooth but if a distro drops Qt5
support it will likely switch to PyQt5 as well. So this option will
probably only be used on isolated platforms for testing.
PyQt5 will require some changes (foremost let cmake find the lib) but
the real challenge will be to update plugins themselves.
