[Interest] Facing build error on mac os

[Nuno Santos]

I don’t see you checking out any specific version.

Which version of Qt do you want to build?

Let’s you want to build v5.15.9. You need to checkout that tag

git checkout v5.15.9

To see available tags, git tag —list

See if that helps

Best,

Nuno
