configuration.h error: 'signals' does not name a type

When I try to compile the code on my Fedora 22, I get the following error

This is not an error that we recognize. It seems as though it could be a problem with your Qt installation/configuration. The symbol signals is Qt specific and should work as long as Qt is correctly setup as far as we are aware of.

We haven't tried to compile LabTool in Fedora, but we have instructions for how to do it in Windows and on Raspberry Pi (which runs Linux).

The problem could be that the Configuration object isn't defined as a QObject. Signals and slots are actually not used by this class so you can try to remove 'signals:' and 'public slots:' from the header file and see if it compiles

I commented out "Signals" and "slots" and this made the software compile.

I new feel confident enough to try and order the Labtool - thank you for
the help.

Best regards
Esben
