[Interest] Qt 6.5.4-LTS from source -> fatal: Unable to find current revision in submodule path 'qt5compat'

[Nuno Santos]

Hi,

While trying to build Qt 6 from source I’m having this error while initialising the necessary modulates with the following line:

➜  tqtc-qt5 git:(v6.5.4-lts) perl init-repository --module-subset=qt5compat,qtbase,qtdeclarative,qtimageformats,qtmultimedia,qtshadertools,qtsvg,qtwebsockets


fatal: Unable to find current revision in submodule path 'qt5compat'
git submodule update --force --no-fetch exited with status 32768 at init-repository line 207.
	Qt::InitRepository::exe(Qt::InitRepository=HASH(0x122808bd8), "git", "submodule", "update", "--force", "--no-fetch") called at init-repository line 452
	Qt::InitRepository::git_clone_all_submodules(Qt::InitRepository=HASH(0x122808bd8), "tqtc-qt5", 0, "", "qt5compat", "qtbase", "qtdeclarative", "qtimageformats", ...) called at init-repository line 674
	Qt::InitRepository::run(Qt::InitRepository=HASH(0x122808bd8)) called at init-repository line 685

Does anyone know how to overcome this?

Thanks!

Nuno
