[SOLVED] Sony Vaio Control Center No rule to make target /qmake.conf', needed by 'Makefile'. Stop.

Ztcoracat · 07-01-2016, 11:03 PM

Last week I hit a key on my keyboard and the backlight stopped working. It still lights up when the laptop boots but it doesn't light up like it should when I type any key.This is a Sony SVE 151190X Enhanced E Series.

I'm trying to install the vaio-control-center that I downloaded from Sorce Forge to fix the problem but something is wrong.
What is it that I need?

Code:

[linuxcat@localhost Downloads]$ mkdir ~/.VCC
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/linuxcat/.VCC’: File exists
[linuxcat@localhost Downloads]$ mv vaio-control-center-0.1.tar.bz2 ~/.VCC
[linuxcat@localhost Downloads]$ cd ~/.VCC
[linuxcat@localhost .VCC]$ tar -xjvf vaio-control-center-0.1.tar.bz2
COPYING
Makefile
compile
moc_main_window.cpp
run
ui_main_window.h
vaio-control-center
vaio-control-center.pro
vcc/
vcc/helpers.c
vcc/helpers.h
vcc/main_window.cpp
vcc/main_window.hpp
vcc/main_window.ui
vcc/vaio-control-center.cpp
[linuxcat@localhost .VCC]$ make -j12
make: *** No rule to make target '/usr/share/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++-64/qmake.conf', needed by 'Makefile'.  Stop.

These are the instructions I am following where it starts more than 1/2 way down the page with Old Post:
Try downloading the Vaio Control Center from SourceForge. The article says for this to work, you MUST have QT Core and QT Dev installed. I checked in the konsole and they are already installed.

From your link (emphasis is mine):

Quote:

Note: For this to work, you MUST have QT Core and QT Dev installed!

Edit (inspired by comment by MGodby): Make sure you have qt4-qmake installed. Also make sure that the conf-file is in /usr/share/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++-64/qmake.conf. If need be, make a symlink to the proper location.

On Debain (and Ubuntu) the qmake.conf file is in usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++-64/ so you would need to make a symlink. http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/am...qmake/filelist

I guess you could try editing the Makefile.

Looks like I'm going to have to go find the qmake .rpm-

Code:

Package qt-1:4.8.7-18.fc24.x86_64 is already installed, skipping.
No package qmake available.

qt4-devel is installed.

have you checked this: http://www.geopsy.org/wiki/index.php...inary_packages

knudfl · 07-04-2016, 03:36 AM

May be the the program is confused because of no plain 'qmake' ?

'qt-devel' provides /usr/bin/qmake-qt4 ... see $ rpm -ql qt-devel

I did a dnf search for qt-qmake and it returned:

Code:

qt-qmake.x86_64 Qt for Windows Build Environment

Is that what it's complaining about?

Here's a pic of the vaio control center files that came with the tar.bz2 so you can see what I'm looking at.

Not the qmake you have installed. And not an original Fedora package, I think.

The default Qt4 qmake, from 'qt-devel' : /usr/bin/qmake-qt4
And qt5, 'qt5-qtbase-devel' provides /usr/bin/qmake-qt5
....

What I mean is that not all software can decide a qmake when the naming is e.g. qmake-qt4.
Suggest : cd /usr/bin/ ; # ln -s qmake-qt4 qmake

Created a symbolic link like you suggested.

Code:

[linuxcat@localhost bin]$ su
Password: 
[root@localhost bin]#  ln -s qmake-qt4 qmake
[root@localhost bin]#

Code:

[linuxcat@localhost Downloads]$ ls
compile
COPYING

gstreamer-plugins-bad-nonfree-0.10.23-3.fc24.x86_64.rpm
Makefile
moc_main_window.cpp
run
ui_main_window.h
vaio-control-center
vaio-control-center-0.1.tar.bz2
vaio-control-center.pro
vcc

[linuxcat@localhost Downloads]$ make -j12
make: *** No rule to make target '/usr/share/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++-64/qmake.conf', needed by 'Makefile'.  Stop.
[linuxcat@localhost Downloads]$ make

[root@localhost Downloads]# ./vaio-control-center
bash: ./vaio-control-center: /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

What's missing? A qmake configuration file?

Code:

Now re-run make -j12 throws an error-:

probably you need to check which qt version is recommended

Ztcoracat · 07-07-2016, 06:03 AM

Code:

Installed Packages
qt.x86_64                        1:4.8.7-18.fc24                        @updates
[linuxcat@localhost ~]$ dnf list installed qt-devel
Last metadata expiration check: 2 days, 16:12:43 ago on Mon Jul  4 14:47:31 2016.
Installed Packages
qt-devel.x86_64                     1:4.8.7-18.fc24                     @updates

The man that wrote the article didn't say which version of qt is recommended.
All he said is that "For this to work, you MUST have QT Core and QT Dev installed."

pan64 · 07-07-2016, 06:16 AM

here you can find some tips, probably usable. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...st-qt4-775969/
Also probably another version of qt will work.
