Since 5.3.1, qthelp installs Qt5HelpConfigExtras.cmake which causes any CMake-based package to fail configure unless qcollectiongenerator from dev-qt/assistant-tools is present.

I'm not sure whether to just add a dep or do something else.

even if they don't use qcollectiongenerator?

Yep.

Meh, this sucks because assistant-tools already depends on qthelp... I guess we will have to merge the two packages...

I'd file a bug upstream in any case, it seems kinda silly to fail because an unused tool is not installed.

And I think it also fails if Qt is configured with "-nomake tools", which should be a supported configuration.

Upstream isn't interested: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-40408

Merged assistant-tools back into qthelp.
