I find it compiked correctly, but the IDE fails to start thus

gb.gui.qt.webkit: unable to load 'gb.qt4.webkit' component
ERROR: #2: Cannot load class 'HelpView': Cannot load parent class:
Cannot load class 'WebView': Unable to load class file

IMHO it is far to early to lose gb.qt4.webkit, many packages depend on
it not just the IDE, and upstream have not finished
forming a HTML viewer replacement for qt5 (hence the IDE still uses the old one)
I propose bringing back qt4.webkit at least until the IDE itself is ported.
