Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/kavishdevar/librepods/issues/435

I got all the way to "cmake .." but then I received this error:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:7 (find_package):
Found package configuration file:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6/Qt6Config.cmake

but it set Qt6_FOUND to FALSE so package "Qt6" is considered to be NOT
FOUND. Reason given by package:

Failed to find required Qt component "LinguistTools".

Expected Config file at
"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/Qt6LinguistTools/Qt6LinguistToolsConfig.cmake"
does NOT exist

Configuring with --debug-find-pkg=Qt6LinguistTools might reveal details why
the package was not found.

Configuring with -DQT_DEBUG_FIND_PACKAGE=ON will print the values of some
of the path variables that find_package uses to try and find the package.

I'm new to Linux (I've only been testing it for a few days), so I have no idea what to do. Can anyone help me, please?

This is very likely an issue with your machine not having the correct qt6 dev tools library, rather than an issue with librepods.

Install the qt6-qttools-devel package, and try to run cmake .. again. This package is:
For fedora: sudo dnf in qt6-qttools-devel,
for ubuntu: sudo apt-get install qt6-tools-dev.
For debian: sudo apt-get install qt6-tools-dev-tools

Hopefully this fixes your problem!
