If a script has trouble finding your Qt 5 installation, edit `omim/autobuild/detect_qmake.sh`,
adding a path to `qmake` there.
## Map Servers
The "guest" configuration does not have any map server addresses built-in. That means, while your
application would work well with [downloaded maps](http://direct.mapswithme.com/direct/latest/),
it won't be able to download them by itself. To fix this, add some servers to
`DEFAULT_URLS_JSON` define in the `private.h` file. These servers should have mwm files
in `/maps/151231` paths, symlinked to `/ios`, `/android`, `/mac` and `/win` (depending on operating
systems from which your maps will be downloaded).
`151231` is a version number, which should be a six-digit integer, usually in form
`YYMMDD` of the date map data was downloaded. The version and file sizes of all mwm and
routing files should be put into `data/countries.txt` file.
Android application may also download some resources - fonts and World files - from the same
servers. It checks sizes of existing files via `external_resources.txt`, and if some of these
don't match, it considers them obsolete and downloads new resource files.
