If Qt4 and Qt5 are installed in /opt, use source setqt4 or source setqt5 to choose which one will be used to build the Qt GUI. For Qt4, first fix the code with: sed -i '/^CONFIG/aQMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11' qt/qtr.pro Now, compile the Qt GUI, with the following commands: pushd qt && qmake qtr.pro && make && popd This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install If you compiled the Qt GUI, install it by running the following commands as the root user: make INSTALL_ROOT=/usr -C qt install && install -m644 qt/transmission-qt.desktop /usr/share/applications/transmission-qt.desktop && install -m644 qt/icons/transmission.png /usr/share/pixmaps/transmission-qt.png --without-gtk: This switch disables building of the GTK+ interface if GTK+ is present on the system (useful for Qt5 or cli only builds).
