Adding Qt6/Pyside2 support in yocto image for x86/amd64 target with Intel CPU

Question

I'm trying to build a yocto image for x86/amd64 target with intel cpu. Meta-intel layer has given a bootable minimal x11 image-core-image-x11. I've to run a Pyside application on the target which would involve adding Qt5/6 support first and then adding PySide.

Following file results in bootable image but qmake command is not found

SUMMARY = "A full-featured basic X11 + PySide image."

LICENSE = "MIT"

IMAGE_FEATURES += " splash package-management x11-base"

DEPENDS += "qtbase"

COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "intel-corei7-64"

inherit core-image qt6-qmake features_check

REQUIRED_DISTRO_FEATURES = "x11 ptest"

QB_MEM = '${@bb.utils.contains("DISTRO_FEATURES", "opengl", "-m 512", "-m 256", d)}'

Novice in yocto, trying to understand adding qt support without using boot2qt since boot2qt layer does not support MACHINE=intel-corei7-64

It is not logic to include qt6-qmake in an image recipe type.

Image recipes inherits image.bbclass which disables all package recipe's tasks from do_fetch to do_package_* tasks.

qt6-qmake has do_configure and do_compile for recipes that needs to run qmake on a Qt project.

In order to include qmake to your image:

Remove qt6-qmake from the inherit line.
Remove DEPENDS += "qtbase" as DEPENDS is for package recipes and not for image recipes.
Add:

IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " qtbase-dev qtbase-tools"
