I've been trying to install QT5 on my RPi for days to no avail. I've tried a number of tutorials on cross compiling and even found a site where it was compiled already but still didn't work.

I'm looking for help or for someone to try the following tutorial and see if they get further than me.

http://wiki.qt.io/Native_Build_of_Qt5_on_a_Raspberry_Pi

I've completed all the steps successfully down to this: (step right before compiling)

In order to properly run configure for Qt5 on the Raspberry Pi, you need to point the CROSS_COMPILE variable to the native compiler located at /usr/bin/g+. The CROSS_COMPILE parameter is the path to the compiler (without the g). If you do not do this properly it will complain that it is not being cross compiled.
All output is stored in the file called ‘output’ in case something goes wrong. At the end of the output file it should say you can run ‘make’, if not look for errors at the end of the output.
Do not be concerned with some things not building due to missing packages, there will be errors for those. If it does not mention that you can run make then check the last error, it is generally the show-stopper. Run configure:
Code:
./configure -v -opengl es2 -device linux-rasp-pi-g''+ -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/ -opensource -confirm-license -optimized-qmake -reduce-exports -release -qt-pcre -make libs -prefix /usr/local/qt5 &> output
Check the output file to see that it is building the components you need (towards the end of the output it will have Yes next to the Qt Components that will be built) and it should say that you can now run 'make'.
Example from 'output' file:
Code:
…
Build options:
 Configuration ………. accessibility accessibility-atspi-bridge alsa audio-backend c+''11 clock-gettime
clock-monotonic concurrent cross_compile cups dbus egl eglfs evdev eventfd fontconfig full-config getaddrinfo

NOTE: libxkbcommon 0.2.0 (or higher) not found on the system, will use
the bundled version from 3rd party directory.
 
Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'make'.
Once everything is built, you must run 'make install'.
Qt will be installed into /usr/local/qt5
 
Prior to reconfiguration, make sure you remove any leftovers from
the previous build.

I successfully make the output file but mine looks nothing like what it should look like. Mine looks like this:
Code:
DEFAULT_INCDIRS="/usr/include/c++/4.6
/usr/include/c++/4.6/arm-linux-gnueabihf
/usr/include/c++/4.6/backward
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.6/include
/usr/local/include
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.6/include-fixed
/usr/include/arm-linux-gnueabihf
/usr/include
"
DEFAULT_LIBDIRS="/usr/lib/gcc/arm-linux-gnueabihf/4.6
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
/usr/lib
/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
/lib
"

Anyone else getting different results.
Better yet, anyone have a better tutorial for getting QT5 on a Raspberry?

Upon further investigation and help from a friend it seems the tutorial in the OP is for a v1 RPi. I've been trying this on a v2 RPi with the quad core. So instead I'll try the Native Build of Qt 5.4.1 on a Raspberry Pi http://wiki.qt.io/Native_Build_of_Qt_5.4.1_on_a_Raspberry_Pi
