Please note the implication on this: the Linux distribution you're using is 
NOT a supported one.

The commit removing xkbcommon explicitly says so:
http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/commit/?
id=c3a963da1f9e7b1d37e63eedded61da4fbdaaf9a

    Having libxkbcommon in 3rdparty sources is not necessary anymore, after
    RHEL 6.6 was removed from the list of supported platforms for Qt 5.12.
