Hi Sabyasachi,

Would you mind posting this on discourse.paraview.org<http://discourse.paraview.org>? We are retiring this mailing list soon and all new ParaView community discussion is on the Discourse site.

Thanks,

Hi,

I am trying to build and install paraview with the superbuild procedure on a MacOS. I have a few questions:

1. When "ENABLE_QT5" is off, it builds successfully. However, "make install" fails due to the following error:

----------------------

[ 44%] Built target paraview
[ 88%] Built target cxx11
[100%] Built target cxx11_check
Install the project...
-- Install configuration: "Release"

Call Stack (most recent call first):

make: *** [install] Error 1

---------------

How can I approach to fix this or is this a bug specific to MacOS?

2. When "Enable_QT5" is on, the configuration fails stating the following error:

-------------------

CMake Error at superbuild/projects/apple/qt5.cmake:2 (message):
Please set the CMAKE_OSX_SDK to use in Qt5's build
Call Stack (most recent call first):
superbuild/cmake/SuperbuildMacros.cmake:894 (include)
superbuild/CMakeLists.txt:147 (superbuild_process_dependencies)


-------------------

I was under the impression that superbuild has all dependencies of paraview (such as qt5) included. Therefore, this error was unexpected. To bypass this, should I now first build a version of qt5 (such as 5.8) from source and then configure preview-superbuild by specifying "QT5_DIR"?

Looking forward to your answers.

Best regards,
Sabyasachi
