Hello Hekki,

thanks for your reply. I cannot use sub-packages as a parameter to bitbake, it accepts recipe names only. Is this a new feature? I am on Yocto Jethro.

However, adding the qtbase-examples package to IMAGE_INSTALL does not make any difference. Maybe this works for other Qt packages (which use the qmake5_base_do_configure function just like before), but it doesn't work for qtbase, because the qtbase-examples packages is empty. As I said, the examples are not compiled at all, so they cannot be installed either.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
i.A. Tim Jaacks
