Failed building PySide2 on Linux: no designer file

[johhnry]

Hi,

The build fails on Gentoo Linux when building PySide2 with the downloaded Python 3.9:

Copying file /usr/lib64/libQt5WaylandCompositor.so.5 to /media/hdd/git/johhnry/OpenRV/build/_deps/rv_deps_pyside2-src/build/lib.linux-x86_64-cpython-39/PySide2/Qt/lib/libQt5WaylandCompositor.so.5.
Copying file /usr/lib64/libicutu.so.72 to /media/hdd/git/johhnry/OpenRV/build/_deps/rv_deps_pyside2-src/build/lib.linux-x86_64-cpython-39/PySide2/Qt/lib/libicutu.so.72.

It seems that it can't find and copy a file called designer in the _deps/rv_deps_pyside2-src/build/lib.linux-x86_64-cpython-39/PySide2 directory.

Do someone know where it comes from?

Thanks!

Hi @johhnry I think you're the first to attempt building with Gentoo. That file should have been put there when PySide was built. Is there perhaps an error from earlier in the build when PySide was being built?

designer is a tool that is provided by QT's online installer. I had a similar issue trying to use Qt from homebrew to build OpenRV on a Mac.
