Hello,

This question should be in the "installation isssues" section of the forum. Also, do not forget to follow each section's recommendations to save a few question/answer exchanges.

It just means that confugure cannot find PyQt of required versions. Check what versions you have, then search Internet for method installing on your distro. There may be a repository package or you need pip3.
Also, newer Saturne needs C11 C++ or you will catch strange compile errors. So use up-to-date distro or devtoolset with, for example, environment setting for gcc-7 (don't forget to source env-variables right before config/make).

@Antech : in fact , starting with v8.3 it is a c++14 compiler which is required as per the official release notes.
