From your screenshot it looks like you’re getting Qt 5.9.6 in there?

What command are you running to build Slicer?

How did you install Qt?

3

Yes, you are right. Qt version 5.9.6
To install Qt5.9.6 I used this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jdjcF7rUDU

This is the list of all commands that I used to build Slicer:

  1. sudo apt-get install subversion git-core git-svn
  2. sudo apt-get install make gcc g++ libx11-dev libxt-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libfontconfig-dev libxrender-dev libncurses5-dev
  3. sudo apt-get install libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
  4. sudo apt-get install curl mkdir ~/Support && cd ~/Support curl -O https://cmake.org/files/v3.8/cmake-3.8.2-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz tar -xzvf cmake-3.8.2-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz
  5. mkdir -p ~/bin
  6. ln -s ~/Support/cmake-3.8.2-Linux-x86_64/bin/cmake ~/bin/cmake
  7. ln -s ~/Support/cmake-3.8.2-Linux-x86_64/bin/cmake-gui ~/bin/cmake-gui
  8. I also install Qt 4 from this page https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/Developers/Build_Instructions#BUILD_Slicer

sudo apt-get install qt4-dev-tools libqt4-dev libqtcore4 libqtgui4 libqtwebkit-dev
9) cd MyProjects
git clone git://github.com/Slicer/Slicer.git
10) cd Slicer
./Utilities/SetupForDevelopment.sh
11) cd Slicer
git svn init http://svn.slicer.org/Slicer4/trunk
git update-ref refs/remotes/git-svn refs/remotes/origin/master
git checkout master
git svn rebase
12) svn co http://svn.slicer.org/Slicer4/branches/Slicer-4-8 Slicer-r26813 -r 26813
13) mkdir Slicer-SuperBuild
cd Slicer-SuperBuild
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DQt5_DIR:PATH=/home/ubuntu-gd/Qt5.9.6/5.9.6/gcc_64/lib/cmake/Qt5 …/Slicer
14) cd Slicer
make -j4

As far as I can tell the workflow looks fine. I have my environment working using Qt built from the qt-easy-build script:

I just noticed your console output:

virtual memory exhausted

Could you be running out of RAM? How much do you have?

I have only RAM = 4 GB

The most recent recommended hardware configuration for using Slicer suggests a 64-bit OS with at least 8GB of RAM. If you will be working with large volume data sets you will need more RAM.
