PREFIX determines the base directory to install Lumina ("/usr/local" by default), LIBPREFIX determines the location to install/use libraries ("PREFIX/lib" by default), and QT5LIBDIR determines the location of the Qt5 libraries ("LIBPREFIX/qt5" by default). The syntax to set these custom values when running qmake is usually: "qmake PREFIX=/some/prefix LIBPREFIX=/some/lib/prefix QT5LIBDIR=/main/qt5/library/dir" + - (Linux Note) If there is a customized OS template for your particular distro (not the general "Linux" template), you will need to change into the libLumina subdirectory and run the "make-linux-distro.sh" script to modify the project file for the Lumina library after running "qmake" in step 3.
