Thanks for replying.
Yes, this is under xfce4.
I had installed the qt5 deps myself via rpm. Since Johnny claims
success, the idea I get is perhaps I should let the TV rpm pull in its
own deps by itself, rather than being installed beforehand.
Do you think it might be worth for me to recreate the vm and install Qt5
indirectly via TV rpm ?
This is all a bit confounding for the user, but this is the best idea I
have.
Thanks & Regards,
