Yes, this qt5-qtbase patch goes into the qt5-qtwebengine (!) specfile. The idea is that my snippet:
mkdir patched-mkspecs-features
creates a custom directory for patched mkspecs/features in the qt5-qtwebengine buildroot,
cp -a /usr/lib64/qt5/mkspecs/features/qt_module{,_headers}.prf \ patched-mkspecs-features/
copies the original files from the RHEL qt5-qtbase mkspecs/features into the custom directory,
patch -p3 -d patched-mkspecs-features <%{PATCH500}
patches them,
export QMAKEFEATURES=`pwd`/patched-mkspecs-features
and then tells QMake to use them in preference to the system-installed ones,
and then try again.
so then you can go on building QtWebEngine, and it will hopefully succeed. And you did NOT have to touch the system qt5-qtbase, which is off limits.
I hope this helps, Kevin Kofler
