I will be working on a Mac Studio M2 with macOS 14.5. But these instructions should work on any Mac with macOS 12.0 or later. I will also be downloading and building in $HOME/qt
but feel free to change VESCBUILDBASE
to another folder you with to use.
The resulting build will be in /opt/external/qt-5.15.14
so change the -prefix
option if you wish to change that. Also feel free to change -j8
to a higher number if you have more cores available to speed up the build.
Open up Terminal and let's get started!
