 For the time being, Qt is only needed for the launcher feature, which is automatically disabled if it is not found<ref>http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/33498614/</ref>.
 If CMake does not find QT5 then it skips the QT launcher compilation<ref>http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/33498869/</ref>. Thus, Qt5 is an optional build dependency and people can continue to use other other front-ends (fgrun, fgx etc).
+On systems without Qt5 support, you will see this:
+<syntaxhighlight lang="text">
+-- Qt launcher enabled, checking for Qt 5.1 / qmake
+CMake Warning at CMakeLists.txt:303 (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 5.1) 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.

 We need to have the discussion if it should become the default launcher for Windows (Linux and other Unixes are less relevant, it’s up to the distribution packagers).
