[Openchemistry-developers] Building Avogadro from OpenChemistry Github

[Ishan Gupta]

Hi Sanjeed,

I tried various ways of building the repo and one of the main errors were
occurring when it was building the testing libraries of Moleque. It was
throwing these error, which is in a nutshell belonging to QDataStream.

And due to these errors, the build exits without completing the build of
Avogadro application. Can you help me sort out how to make it work
correctly?
