<![CDATA[Problems building 5.6.2 on Raspberry Pi 5 with Raspbian 12 (Debian Bookworm)]]>I am trying to build QT 5.6.2 on my Raspberry Pi 5 (which is running Raspbian 12, which ships with 5.4.2). I need 5.6.2 for Fritzing 1.0.7. I am getting this error when building:

marchhare% pkg-config libdrm --cflags-only-I
-I/usr/include/libdrm

It doesn't. This would explain the problem. This suggests that there is a problem in the configure script or configure tests or the Makefiles (or the generation of the Makefiles).

I don't know what is missing...

The configure script completed without problems -- wouldn't it crash if something essentual was missing?
