    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Currently, configure contains:


    if test -z "$MOC" || test -z "$UIC" || test -z "$RCC" || test -z
"$LRELEASE" || test -z "$QCOLLECTIONGENERATOR" || test -z "$QHELPGENERATOR";
then
      warn_qt_tools="one or more of the Qt utility programs moc, uic, rcc, and
lrelease not found; disabling Qt GUI"
      build_qt_gui=no


This can be misleading as the Qt GUI is disabled but the warning message does
not list all the files that can be missing (in my case qcollectiongenerator
and qhelpgenerator from the libqt5-qttools package).

Also, would it be possible to have the Qt GUI built without its help module if
qcollectiongenerator and qhelpgenerator are missing?
