      Hello.. I compiled other emulators for macOS and don't have a problem. I am not a noob but I have a problem. This is the first time I have a problem with Dolphin on macOS.

      -- Could NOT find OpenSLES (missing: OPENSLES_LIBRARY OPENSLES_INCLUDE_DIR) 
      -- Could NOT find ALSA (missing: ALSA_LIBRARY ALSA_INCLUDE_DIR) 
      -- ALSA NOT found, disabling ALSA sound backend
      -- PulseAudio NOT found, disabling PulseAudio sound backend
      CMake Error at Source/Core/DolphinQt/CMakeLists.txt:1 (find_package):
        By not providing "FindQt5.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
        asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5", but
        CMake did not find one.
      
        Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5" (requested
        version 5.9) with any of the following names:
      
          Qt5Config.cmake
          qt5-config.cmake
      
        Add the installation prefix of "Qt5" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "Qt5_DIR"
        to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "Qt5" provides a
        separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.
      
      
      -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

      azoress-MacBook-Pro:build azoreseuropa$ make VERBOSE=1
      make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
      azoress-MacBook-Pro:build azoreseuropa$
      

      According to this:

      macOS Build Steps:

      git clone https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin.git

      cd dolphin
      mkdir build
      cd build

      When I type cmake .. and it was in processing then I got an error as above.

      Is something missing for cmake .. ?

      No, I have everything:

      pkg-config (brew install pkgconfig)
      SDL2 (brew install sdl2, or download this dmg)
      Qt5 (brew install qt5)
      CMake (brew install cmake)

      Help ? Thank you kindly.

            @azoreseuropa I think what herb fargus is saying is that this is a retropie forum. Since retropie is not available for Mac os then you might be asking your question in the wrong place.

                    I don't own anything running macOS so I don't know how much help this will be but...

                    It looks like it's having trouble finding your Qt5 source location.

                    You might need to add the location to the Qt bin/lib to the PATH environment variables:

                        I don't think there is a Retropie build for Mac, I sure haven't found one. But you could always do
                        brew cask install dolphin

                              Oh yes.. I know that one. No, I don't want to install dolphin-5.0.dmg, lol. I want to compile it to the latest one. They will release 6.0 or so but I want to do it, you know. :)
