wolfmame help needed

If this question should go somewhere else please let me know where rather than just delete it.
thanks

I am attempting to compile wolfmame for ubuntu 18.04 from github.
https://github.com/mahlemiut/wolfmame

I have resolved most of the dependencies.
However, I get this error:

make
GCC 7 detected
Compiling src/osd/modules/debugger/debugqt.cpp...
../../../../../src/osd/modules/debugger/debugqt.cpp:18:10: fatal error: QtWidgets/QApplication: No such file or directory
#include <QtWidgets/QApplication>
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
qtdbg_sdl.make:394: recipe for target '../../../../linux_gcc/obj/x64/Release/qtdbg_sdl/src/osd/modules/debugger/debugqt.o' failed
make[2]: *** [../../../../linux_gcc/obj/x64/Release/qtdbg_sdl/src/osd/modules/debugger/debugqt.o] Error 1
Makefile:16: recipe for target 'qtdbg_sdl' failed
make[1]: *** [qtdbg_sdl] Error 2
makefile:1281: recipe for target 'linux_x64' failed
make: *** [linux_x64] Error 2


If someone can name the dependency or the issue it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: wolfmame help needed

My guess would be that you don't have Qt5 development libraries installed.

I'd expect at least qtbase5-dev to be needed at a minimum.

If that's not an option, then USE_QTDEBUG=0 should disable building the Qt debugger.

Re: wolfmame help needed

http://forums.marpirc.net might be a better location in the future for asking for assistance with compiling WolfMAME (at least until the WolfMAME Github has an Issues section). Fortunately, mahlemiut (WolfMAME dev) is also a MAME developer and saw this.
