error: missing binary operator before token "("

[Felix Hammer]

I run into a problem when trying to compile kdenlive via build-kdenlive.sh script:

Any idea what is going wrong there and howto fix this?

Do you have qt5-dev (or similar) package installed?

Thanks for the hint. I need to install some additional qt devel libs since they where splitted i different modules now.
