[Bug 1262273] Re: qt5 automoc detection is not smart enough, when system CMake is used with non-system qt5 (undeclared, toolchain-less sys-root/prefix builds)

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Please note the scope of this bug is very limited:
* when running on a debian like system
* which has multiarch enabled
* and compiling under the environment as exported by dpkg-buildpackage (or similar, e.g. debuild, or launchpad PPA builders)
* with cmake from trusty (highly experimental and volatile)
* with a non-multiarch qt

Attaching a log which shows successful build in question when invoked in
Debian policy compliant way: ./debian/rules build; fakeroot
./debian/rules binary, instead of invoking with a wrapper.

In no way this is an upstream bug, but this is a purely packaging bug.
The recent distro changes to cmake are intended to not cause any
packaging changes, thus this is a regression. I think there are easy
ways to fix this.

Any claims that this is representative of ABI/API in Trusty, are widely
exaggerated. Given that at this point in time Trusty is still early in
development and is undergoing highly disruptive changes (e.g. major
upstream release of eglibc, new libtool, new toolchain, new gtk, new
boost, shortly new qt) this is bug is no more, than a regression in a
weekly automated snapshot builds.
