I'll drop this package, I been thinking and there are a lot of strong reasons not to waste any time maintaining it.
KDE doesn't provide an easy way to download the entire Qt source code in a single package, like in the official Qt releases.
Also, KDE doesn't provides tagged versions, I've to keep tracking manually the latest commits, or converting it to a git package.
It will require to split this package into 47x4 packages, 47 Qt modules and 4 architectures to maintain, that's 188 packages to maintain, absurd!
Cloning a git repository is slower than just downloading a source package file, making the build even much slower and painful.
Is a lot of work for something that will be dead in 1 year or 2 at most.
Good luck to the one that will step up to take care of this monstrosity, to the rest of developers, don't be lazy and consider switching to Qt6.

I think android-platform-24 should be a dependency:

Package fixed.

@xausky the bug has been reported here. Will see if I can do something in my side or if we must wait until a new Qt release.

I made a mistake when I made makepkg again:

ERROR: Cannot compile a minimal program. The toolchain or QMakeSpec is broken. Check config.log for details.

The error in config.log is as follows:

/opt/android-ndk/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/clang++ -D__ANDROID_API__=22 -target i686-none-linux-android -mstackrealign -gcc-toolchain /opt/android-ndk/toolchains/x86- 4.9/prebuilt/linux-x86_64 -fno-limit-debug-info -Wl,--exclude-libs,libgcc.a -Wl,--exclude-libs,libatomic.a --sysroot=/opt/android-ndk/ Platforms/android-22/arch-x86/ -Wl,-soname,libverifyspec.so -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-z,noexecstack -shared -o libverifyspec.so verifyspec.o -L/opt/android -ndk/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++/libs/x86 /opt/android-ndk/sources/cxx-stl/llvm-libc++/libs/x86/libc++.so.22 -llog -lz -lm -ldl -lc

May be related to the ndk version, my ndk is: r20-1

From now on, android-qt5-* will have the following file structure:

/opt/android-libs/architecture/bin
/opt/android-libs/architecture/include
/opt/android-libs/architecture/lib
/opt/android-libs/architecture/lib/qt
/opt/android-libs/architecture/share

The purpose of this change is to coexist with other 3rd-party Android libraries, and create an homogeneous development environment. More changes would come in the future in order to improving the situation.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

big problem here - android-ndk is no longer available for i686 builds. suggestions?
