throw error…

Project ERROR; unknown modules in QT: phonon4qt5…

how to solve this?

You have 2 options:
1) install libqt4_x86_devel and phonon_x86_devel, and try to build it with that version of Qt.

2) re-port the app to Qt5 (you will have to know how to patch the source code) and remove the " QT: phonon4qt5" part from the al-anvar.pro file.

If you go with option (1) you will have to temporarely remove the qt5_x86_devel package from your system and put it back once you are done, and remove the libqt4_x86_devel package leave only the libqt4_x86 installed so you can run that app with it.
Hope it helps.
Good luck.

You can paste the content of your recipe and the error you are getting here, so we can see what’s wrong and help you fix it.

You probably need to add devel:libphonon4qt5$secondaryArchSuffix to BUILD_REQUIRES.

khallebal · September 3, 2018, 1:17pm

As Diver already mentioned, the “devel:libphonon4qt5$secondaryArchSuffix” is missing from the BUILD_REQUIRES section, and you also need to add the following “lib:libphonon4qt5$secondaryArchSuffix” to the REQUIRES section.
It’s also not recommended to add the whole mesa$secondaryArchSuffix pkg, change it to “lib:libGL$secondaryArchSuffix” and “devel:libGL$secondaryArchSuffix” for the REQUIRES and BUILD_REQUIRES respectively.

thanks for @Diver and @khallebal… right now apps compiled successfully…
recipe still not find application and copy to the $appsDir …
still learn and figure out and read again wiki on haikuports…

mazbrili · September 4, 2018, 9:56am

…how to debug the recipe file?
like detect $portDir
i’m stuck because seem recipe cannot find additional files
$portDir/additional-files/alanvar.rdef.in Capture

humdinger · September 4, 2018, 12:07pm

I think your recipe misses

ADDITIONAL_FILES=“alanvar.rdef.in”
