Fail to compile on my end too: https://pastebin.com/raw/T8HuwGyj

Build fails with gcc (GCC) 8.3.0:

[make[3]: [Makefile:12138: .obj/release-shared/qmutex.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/pamac-build-han/qt51/src/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1/qtbase/src/corelib' make[2]: [Makefile:135: sub-corelib-make_first] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/pamac-build-han/qt51/src/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1/qtbase/src' make[1]: [Makefile:42: sub-src-make_first] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/pamac-build-han/qt51/src/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1/qtbase' make: [Makefile:57: module-qtbase-make_first] Error 2

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

FWIW an attempt to compile using gcc6 (6.5.0-2) fails with a different error:

Thx for reporting. Let me know once you find a solution, I will then update the PKGBUILD accordingly.

@Maxr: thanks for spotting, should be fixed!

Im getting a 404 error on trying to build this.

Note that the PKGBUILD of the qt51 group builds all packages at once. So if you need more than one package of this group it makes sense to manually download the source tarball and call makepkg, as opposed to using pacaur or the like...

There is an issue with qtcreator (>= 3) and I require the last qtcreator before the 3 series (which I provide in qtcreator28). qtcreator-2.8, however, depends on qt-5.1.1, which I provide in this package. Everything is installed to /opt/qt51 and the file /opt/qt51.PATH defines the required pathes for dependent programs. This package is maintained under https://github.com/ftalbrecht/aur, pull requests are welcome!
