Git 3ed32041, FreeBSD 10.3, amd64

Qt had been updated from 5.5.1 to 5.6.1 just recently. This resulted in two FTBFSs:

- Missing script bindings for 5.6.1:

After this,

I will try to see if the FreeBSD folks are willing/able to enable the WebEngine component for ports, but in the meantime, falling back to WebKit for 5.6 would certainly be appreciated.

Hunk #1 is necessary regardless.

It's not happening for a while, apparently, although they are working towards it.

I just saw you've implemented then rolled back stating "invalid changes". Out of curiosity, what was invalid about it?

Webkit (QT += webkitwidgets) has been deprecated in Qt 5.5. Starting with Qt 5.6.0, Webengine (QT += webenginewidgets) should be used instead.
Stronger, the downloaded compiled packages of Qt 5.6 do not contain web kit which breaks compilation here with the above changes to shared.pri.

Coming to think of it: QCAD actually does not depend on WebKit or WebEngine anymore since a few months. This dependency was removed because WebKit has been deprecated and WebEngine does not render HTML well enough to be usable for QCAD. The HTML component in the library browser has been removed without replacement. In all other instances, QTextBrowser is now being used.

Sorry about the confusion. I've removed the dependency from shared.pri:

That resolves the FreeBSD situation flawlessly (a least to the tune of "I've just started building, and will come out of the woods again if something's amiss").

Thanks Andrew, much appreciated!
