Combination of getting a new (second hand) laptop, installing a new version of Linux (Mint 18 / Ubuntu 16.04) and compiling the "latest" versions of pretty much all the audio software I can lay may hands on. And ignorance. :D
From what you're suggesting I'd be better off an older version of Qt, perhaps I should rather use 5.5. I've started running into similar problems with Qt5.7 when trying to compile some other apps. Some work, some don't. For example, I'm getting the same problem with Shuriken Beat Slicer. Amazingly enough I did get Qjackctl and Qtractor to work with Qt 5.7.
"may i ask why you're stepping up so fast?"

Thanks as always for the advice.
