[QGIS-Developer] How to build QGIS 2.99 with 3D?

[DelazJ]

Hi,
Maybe I miss something but I fail to fully understand the link between
Matteo needs and your explanation, Patrick. it doesn't look like Matteo has
issues to build QGIS. He already does it, he compiles from source himself (
master or any other branch).
What he wants is simply a way to build QGIS with 3D enabled, thing that by
default requires an upgraded version of QT (and not available in even known
and supported distro like Ubuntu 16.04). Unless I misunderstood...

Btw, which key package is missing in Xenial since january? I also do build
with Xenial and never felt that i'm missing some key features (except 3D
but i chose to not upgrade for that - worried to break a working
environment)

Matteo, have you seen the link I sent earlier (https://www.lutraconsulting.
co.uk/blog/2017/08/06/qgis3d-build/)? Looks like there's a way to have two
versions of qt and build different QGIS depending on what's enabled....
