Again : I am still running catalina too… but it seems that the configure step 
when building with qt 5 had problems… configure chose to build with 10.11 sdk 
(with -isysroot directive) by default which fails. It is possible to build 
with qt 5, but for that to succeed, I had to change quite a few paths in 
makefile.

I haven’t explored Darcy Shen suggestion to use CMake instead yet, but it 
might be another way out.

Regards,

Pierre-Henri
