CMake error while generating build files

Hi everyone,

I've just installed NSIS to create a Wireshark installer. So I wanted to generate the build files after the installation but I get the following output

I followed the instruction of the developer guide. Could someone tell me what to do?

Thanks!

We’ll need to see the complete output from the CMake generation step to help. Please update your question with that info.

You have either not installed Qt, or not set the QT5_BASE_DIR env var for it:

-- Qt5Core NOT FOUND
-- Qt5LinguistTools NOT FOUND
-- Qt5Multimedia NOT FOUND
-- Qt5PrintSupport NOT FOUND
-- Qt5Svg NOT FOUND
-- Qt5Widgets NOT FOUND
-- Qt5WinExtras NOT FOUND

See the Developers Guide section on installing Qt.

Arguably, the nsis installer target should be able to cope without Qt, but as that's the main item we're building I'm not sure.

The QT5_BASE_DIR wasn't set properly. Thanks a lot!
