Headless build fails: qhelpgenerator
I am not able to compile Paraview in headless mode. Compilation fails as soon as qhelpgenerator
is invoked.
Running qhelpgenerator
(and building Paraview) works, if there is a running (e.g.) gdm session.
If I kill the gdm session (systemctl stop gdm
) or if I want to compile remotely on a server, where no such session is active, qhelpgenerator
fails with
(qhelpgenerator:211233): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:47:12.862: cannot open display:
I assume, this is a qt5-tools specific issue, but I would be interested, how Paraview can be build without a running X11 or Wayland session.
