    I am trying to create deb of QT 5.5 app which uses QT5 webkit and webkitwidgets in it. When I am trying to create deb with command "debuild -kMYGPGKEY" then it gives me below error.

    /usr/bin/ld: warning: libQt5WebChannel.so.5, needed by /home/myusername/Qt5.5.0/5.5/gcc_64/lib/libQt5WebKit.so.5.5.0, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)

    /home/myusername/Qt5.5.0/5.5/gcc_64/lib/libQt5WebKit.so.5.5.0: undefined reference to QAccelerometer::QAccelerometer(QObject*)' /home/myusername/Qt5.5.0/5.5/gcc_64/lib/libQt5WebKit.so.5.5.0: undefined reference to QRotationReading::x() const'

    any many more these types of undefined reference errors.

    From the error I found that libQt5WebKit is taking the reference libQt5WebChannel which is not found in my machine.

    So if anybody has any idea about the issue or how can I install libqt5webchannel.so.5 in Ubuntu 16.04 then please let me know.

    Thanks.

      Now I am not getting libqt5webchannel.so.5 missing error (which is dependency of qt webkit) in Ubuntu 16.04.

      Till now I was using Ubuntu 14.04 compatible debian/rule file in Ubuntu 16.04 machine during creating debian package.

      I just made changes in debian/rule file as per Ubuntu 16.04 and it works. But I did not know how to install qt5webchannel in Ubuntu 16.04.
