Thanks Thiago, Jani, Kevin.
Some testing revealed the 5.8.0 and 5.9.0-beta431 sources all compile
and install just fine when given the -no-evdev configure switch, which
disables evdev gamepads plugin. So I opened the bug against Packaging
and Installation instead: QTBUG-59740.
Basically, the offline qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.7.1.run installs it's
default selections without issue, and starts it's QtCreator 4.2.0 on
CentOS 6.8, but subsequent qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.8.0.run,
qt-unified-linux-x64-2.0.5-online.run, and
qt-unified-linux-x64-2.0.5-1-online.run all fail to install any
Qt-5.7.1, Qt-5.8.0, or 5.9.0-beta431 on CentOS 6.8
While I could open an evdev bug, it appears at this point as though that
issue has already been addressed.

Hi Thiago,
BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPYxy are a group of kernel #defines, apparently for
drivers not supported by the 2.6 kernels. Here are my dev notes:
... Qt-5.8.0 then compiled against gcc-5.4.0 with only one minor
problem:
qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.8.0/qtgamepad/src/plugins/gamepads/evdev/qev
devgamepadbackend.cpp does not compile on CentOS-6.8 (apparently) because
the
2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64 kernel is too old
and does not define BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPYn (n=1,2,3,4). On Fedora 25
these are in
/lib/modules/4.9.14-200.fc25.x86_64/build/include/dt-bindings/input/linux-e
vent-codes.h I patched qevdevgamepadbackend.cpp with those values:
#ifndef BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPY1
#define BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPY1 0x2c0
#define BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPY2 0x2c1
#define BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPY3 0x2c2
#define BTN_TRIGGER_HAPPY4 0x2c3
#endif
directly above QEvdevGamepadDevice::resetConfiguration(), and then
the whole Qt-5.8.0 source compiles
just fine (gcc-5.4.0), although there is a minor issue with final
Please report this issue up to here. The developer will determine whether the
#define is acceptable or not.
