Well that seems to work now after a fashion.  I don't know if it was
the 52 packages I installed via dnf, two packages via pip3 (pip doesn't
work) or linking qmake -> qmake-qt5.  MIDI still isn't producing any
sound, but that may well be local configuration.

Anyhow, thanks very much.  I've added it to the menu system and it runs
up happily without a VT.  Just in time for a competition I've tried for
in the past, but didn't manage to get a decent score last year.

Kind regards,
Martin
