Description:
cmake-gui freezes when I click the configure button for the second time.
On the terminal it's printing many error messages (possibly related to qt upgrade?)

Cannot create accessible interface for object: QHeaderView(0x2a9a890)
Cannot create accessible interface for object: QCMakeCacheView(0x2a543b0, name = "CacheValues")
Cannot create accessible interface for object: QCMakeCacheView(0x2a543b0, name = "CacheValues")
Cannot create accessible interface for object: QCMakeCacheView(0x2a543b0, name = "CacheValues")
Cannot create accessible interface for object: QComboBoxListView(0x2a6b1d0)
Cannot create accessible interface for object: QComboBoxListView(0x2a6b1d0)

I have to kill the process manually.
I've tried this with two separate build directories with same issue

I am able to use ccmake successfully.

Additional info:
cmake 2.8.10.2-5
qt4 4.8.4-13
qt5-base 5.0.1-6
This task depends upon

I get the same errors under the same configuration. After attempting to force cmake to use qt4 (setting the --qt-qmake=/usr/bin/qmake-qt4 flag in PKGBUILD), the same error occurs. The only way it worked for me was by

1. Removing qt5
2. Installing cmake, forcing it to use qt4 and changing the dependency
3. Reinstalling 5

I did not try the same by reinstalling qt4 because too many packages had it as a dependency, but this does suggest a confusion when using multiples versions of qt, even when only one qmake is specified for the build.

Solved! Managed to build cmake from ABS against qt5. In addition to the above patch proposed here by BaSh you also need <see attachment>
   qt5-2.patch (9.7 KiB)
   PKGBUILD (1.8 KiB)

Not sure why the second patch is needed, it builds fine here without it?

Well, first if you don't patch the cmake source with qt5-2.patch, the build process will complaint that it can't find QWidget, QApplication, QEvent, etc.
And of course you have to add qt5-2.patch and its md5sum into PKGBUILD, otherwise you're unable to build cmake from ABS.
I also tried to add something like -I/usr/include/qt5/QtCore et al to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS in build() in the PKGBUILD and without applying qt5-2.patch tried to build cmake - it didn't work.
So here I posted what really worked for me. I successfully built cmake-gui that does its job as it must (thanks to the first's patch authors!). Hope it will help others.
