Hi David,
I tried to retrace your steps, and both glitches seem to be related to
using sudo for the build step. At least the second problem is due to sudo
resetting QTDIR (*), and maybe the first one too, combined with some rpmbuild
black magic. I can see two solutions:
- Run the build without sudo (which is not needed), then install the
resulting rpm with sudo.
- Try to add QTDIR to the env_keep list in /etc/sudoers (but there may be
other further problems, I didn't test this approach).
Actually the Recoll build should fail at the 'configure' stage in this
situation, I don't know why it does not detect that QTDIR is both needed
and not set (it does notice the problem when run out of the sudo
environment).

(*) For some reason, qmake wants to check some stuff inside
$(QTDIR)/src/moc, hence the error message about /src/moc when QTDIR is not
set.
Jean-Francois,
Thank you. Building without sudo worked just fine. Now off to explore what
recoll can do. Thanks again.
