    Description

      I was using Qt 5.5.1 and android emulators successfully some time ago, but now I cannot run my (and Qt) QtQuick apps as nothing gets rendered (white window) with errors like this:

      W libgallery.so: (null):0 ((null)): QOpenGLShader::compile(Vertex): Vertex shader failed to compile with the following errors:
      W libgallery.so: ERROR: 0:2: error(#101) Macro redefined: lowp
      W libgallery.so: ERROR: 0:3: error(#101) Macro redefined: mediump
      W libgallery.so: ERROR: 0:4: error(#101) Macro redefined: highp
      W libgallery.so: ERROR: error(#273) 3 compilation errors.  No code generated
      

      Tried to compile gallery example using Qt 5.6.0 - it' the same. App does not crash though, QtWebView can be launched and be visible, for example. Apps work on OK on KDE desktop itself.

      Full output of quick/controls/gallery app running on Andrid 6 x86 emulator is attached.

      Only thing changed since that time with Android apps was that I believe I updated Android SDK (some things through SDK manger), and upgraded fglrx drivers to 15 (due to some other issues) from wheezy-backports:

      $ apt-cache policy fglrx-driver fglrx-modules-dkms 
      fglrx-driver:
        Installed: 1:15.9-4~deb8u1~bpo70+1
        Candidate: 1:15.9-4~deb8u1~bpo70+1

      After downgrading fglrx to v12 from main wheezy repository everything started to work again.

      Not sure if there will be same problems after upgrading to Jessie, where v15 driver are the default.

      Also not sure if this is right place to report bug. Maybe I should report to fglrx Debian maintainers also..?

      Sadly I can't test with Linux 3.16 (Jessie default) backport because KDE rendering issues on Wheezy).
