Install on Raspberry Pi 4 64 bit
-
Hello all,
Hoping for some help, please
I've tried multiple times (using the Debian compile guide on here) to install to my Raspberry Pi. No success so far.
The QT6 elements can't be found when installing dependencies seems to be the stumbling block
Has anyone else tried recently? Is there an alternative method I could use?Kind regards

If you are running the currently latest stable Raspberry Pi Os, it's based on Debian 11 (bullseye) and do not have Qt 6 in the standard repository.So you have the following options.:
- Build Strawberry with Qt 5 instead.
- Add the debian backports repository which provides Qt 6 (I think it also provides strawberry).
- Use a different distro, both Fedora and openSUSE have images for Raspberry Pi and they both have strawberry in their repository.
For building with Qt 5 instead, install the required Qt 5 packages with the following command:
sudo apt install -y qtbase5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libqt5x11extras5-dev
For debian backports, see: https://backports.debian.org/
Alternative distros:

@jonas thank you! A fantastic reply. I went for adding the backports and, as you thought, strawberry is available as a result.
All installed and ready to go. Thanks again. -
