Bug 208987: devel/qt5 missing audio plugins
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208987



--- Description ---
When running a Qt5 application with QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 argument, it dumps the
following diagnostics lines among others:

QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() checking directory path
"/usr/local/lib/qt5/plugins/audio" ... // there is no audio directory
QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() checking directory path
"/usr/home/user0/.kde4/lib/kde4/plugins/audio" ... // there is no .kde4/lib
QFactoryLoader::QFactoryLoader() checking directory path
"/usr/local/lib/kde4/plugins/audio" ... // also no audio directory

I was troubleshooting lack of sound output from the Qt program and made the
comments (// etc) about the missing folders after the messages.

It looks like the audio plugins are missing from the port installation. The Qt
team does not understand why all directories and their contents are missing.
