I had that problem too. It was looking for qhelpgenerator in the wrong
place - in qtbase/bin instead of my installed QT5 directory, where the
executable was. I ended up having to do 1 of 2 things to work around
this.

  1. re-run installed qmake in the qtdocs directory
  2. copy the qhelpgenerator executable into $QTBASE/bin

I am not sure if i had a dirty build or what. I've been doing lots of
what I thought were "clean" rebuilds from new git pulls but sometimes
I miss something.
