How to replace Qt 6.3 with Qt 5.14 on imx-5.15.71-2.2.0 for 8MPLUSLPD4-EVK?

[MorrisYao]

The imx-5.15.71-2.2.0 comes with Qt6. We'd like to use Qt5.14, how can I replace it? The board is 8MPLUSLPD4-EVK.

I tried to clone the meta-qt5 from kirkstone branch from https://github.com/meta-qt5/meta-qt5/tree/kirkstone and removed meta-qt6 form bblayers.conf file. However it gave errors when compiled it.

Basing this manifest file: https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-manifest/blob/imx-linux-kirkstone/imx-5.15.71-2.2.0.xml

Thanks

Hi, Just wondering if you made any progress with this? I am also trying to get Qt5 instead of Qt6 on kirkstone. Thanks.

Hi @MorrisYao, 

The reason for the errors is related to the meta-qt6 due to the dependency of other layers such as meta-ml with Qt6.
In this case, you could try using an old release with support of Qt5 such as LF5.10.72_2.2.0 and the previous.

I hope this information will be helpful.

Have a great day.
