Ubuntu bionic appears to have removed the QtLocation private headers

[Dirk Hohndel]

So builds for that currently fail - Normally we download those headers at build time - but Ubuntu doesn't allow us to do that when using Launchpad. And of course the headers need to exactly match the Qt version, so it's hard for us to bundle them.

zero experience with Launchpad here.

hope that build.sh works at least. Martin Měřinský recently reported
that the build on 18.04 fails with private header errors.
have you solved that Martin?

What was the package with the Qt private headers? I could just add that for
18.04 in our Launchpad repo... Should do the trick.

AFAIK one of the problems was that there are simply no packages for
some of the Qt private headers in Ubuntu (intentionally).
this is why we added this solution to pull private headers:

Right. I also asked on Debian and the answer was that they don't provide
private headers unless they are actually required by something else that they
also build (like other Qt modules).
