Hi Jack

I've been reading your epic biography!

Now, this surprises me, showing the shallowness of my knowledge/memory,
as I'd done a text search of the
CMakeLists.txt, which now produces no finds.  However, your two
suggestions produce -

QT_BINARY_DIR:INTERNAL=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin
QT_HEADERS_DIR:INTERNAL=/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5

Only on seeing the result did it dawn on me to look at CMakeCache.txt.
I'm glad to say that I immediately realised that after removing the qt5
references, I hadn't deleted that file or the build directory.  Right
now, make has reached 25% and looking good.

I got bogged down on qt5 build, and didn't really understand what it was
telling me about wrong versions.  I didn't seem to have what it wanted
and couldn't find a source for them.  Assuming 4.8.0 goes OK - now 65%
-I'll need to try once more, again, again.  Installation now complete.

Many thanks, again
