Download the newest stable version of Qt directly from qt.io (You need 5.6.x or newer)

download and extract QScintilla (see above for link), assume it is extracted in QScintilla-gpl-2.9.1

```

cd ~/QScintilla-gpl-2.9.1/Qt4Qt5

You will need to either put your copy of QT into your path or specify the path to qmake directly

## What to do if your compile failed?
|

|
||||
The very first thing to do is try:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
qmake
|
||||
|
||||
make clean
|
||||
|
||||
make
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Did that fix it? Great! If not, see if QT seems to be complaining about not finding the QScintilla header files. If that's the case then you are probably not using the same QT version as QScintilla was compiled against. It's easy to run the wrong qmake and have this happen. Double check that you've already compiled and installed QScintilla and that you've used the proper qmake version.
