docs: adding Qt build hints for mac os - only v 5.15.1 worked #80

Merged
dsc merged 2 commits from leonardgit6/wowlet:update-docs into master 3 years ago

Mac OS seemed to only compile with Qt 5.15.1, other versions higher or lower broke the build. Qt ended offline release downloads right around this version, so no offline installers were available. Added additional instructions to build Qt and point to the proper directory name to clarify.

thanks!

Could you change this line into:

./configure -prefix $PWD/qtbase -release -nomake examples -nomake tests -skip qtwebchannel -skip qtpurchasing -skip webengine -skip qtwebview

This saves considerable time compiling Qt
