Qt dev packages problem

I'm getting the same compile error described in #5 here when trying to emerge cantata:

The response is "ui_onlineservicespage.h is created by the build system. I'd suggest you check your Qt dev packages." Can any Gentooers tell me how to track this down?

#5 is an issue in cantatas build setup. You are building cantata out-of-source, am I right? Then the ui file is not generated in CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR/online but CMAKE_BINARY_DIR/online.
If you add ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/online to the dirs in include_directories in l. 155 in the toplevel CMakeLists.txt does it fix the issue?

After some testing I found out that taglib support can not be properly excluded. I get this issue when I pass -DENABLE_TAGLIB=OFF to cmake. Again, it's not an issue with your Qt setup but with their sources.

Should I file a Qt bug or maybe try upgrading a Qt package? If upgrade, which package?

No. It is an error in cantata sources! If you disable Taglib-support it will fail because of an unconditional #include.
So install taglib, pass -DENABLE_TAGLIB=ON when invoking cmake for cantata. If you use the ebuilds - which fail for USE="-taglib", too, enabling USE="taglib" should fix it, too (did not test that)

Should I file a cantata bug? I'm sorry if this is still wrong but it's been a long day.

Yes, it's a cantata bug and should be reported there.
You should mention that -DENABLE_TAGLIB=OFF must be passed to cmake in order to trigger the issue.
And post here the link to the bug
