[Development] Qt build without Virtual Keyboard

[Mitch Curtis]

Qt Quick has always been mandatory for Qt Virtual Keyboard, as the keyboard itself is a Qt Quick Item.

I don’t know where or how you got the sources, but you can just remove the qtvirtualkeyboard directory to avoid it being built.

If you’re using Git, you can use –module-subset when initialising the repository to only clone the modules you’re interested in:

perl init-repository –module-subset=qtbase,qtblah

Subject: [Development] Qt build without Virtual Keyboard

Hi,

We are trying to build 5.7 on Linux without OpenGL support (so no QtQuick either) and are facing a build error in qtvirtualkeyboard „Module quick not found“.

Is QtQuick now mandatory, or is this a known bug? And why is the virtual keyboard building at all when choosing L-GPL? That’s not very nice.
