    Description

      In the "Qt for X11 Requirements" page in the documentation, we list the debian packages to install before building Qt, with a special section listing the ones needed to build with xcb.

      In a clean Ubuntu, however, installing these packages is not sufficient, but will cause a build failure instead, since xcb support will be detected by configure, but then building it will fail when trying to include xcb/xinerama.h

      Installing libxcb-* fixed the problem, but I don't know which specific package was required. Chances are it is libxcb-xinerama0-dev.
