Decided to update Qt. Each time this entails reinstalling the drivers for working with databases.
I decided to write down the sequence of actions.
I hope I save someone a couple of hours. :-)
Install Qt 5.11.
The Qt documentation says:
How to Build the QIBASE Plugin on Unix and macOS
The following assumes InterBase or Firebird is installed in /opt/interbase:
If you are using Firebird, the Firebird library has to be set explicitly:
cd $QTDIR/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers
qmake -- IBASE_PREFIX=/opt/interbase IBASE_LIBS=-lfbclient
> make sub-bases
But everything is not so simple.
Learning SuSE, the Fierbird header files are in /usr/include/firebird.
In order for qmake to run, you need to add it to .bashrc
PATH=$PATH:~/Qt5.11.0/5.11.0/gcc_64/bin export PATH
Relogin or open a new console.
Go to the folder with the drivers.
cd ~/Qt5.11.0/5.11.0/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers
Now the difference from the documentation:
qmake -- IBASE_INCDIR=/usr/include/firebird IBASE_LIBS=-lfbclient
If you do as indicated in the documentation, nothing happens :-)
We get the following:

Just run 'make'. Once everything is built, Qt is installed. You should NOT run 'make install'. Note that this build cannot be deployed to other machines or devices. Prior to reconfiguration, make sure you remove any leftovers from the previous build.
For the Interbase driver, the configuration is ready.
Farther...
make sub-ibase
When compiling, we get an error:
g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-std=c++1z’ g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-Wdate-time’
You can google….
Go to the ibase directory.
Open the Makefile in the editor.
Change -std=c++1z to -std=c++11 in two places.
And in the same lines we delete -Wdate-time.
We save the file.
Go to the directory above and repeat:
make sub-ibase
Hooray! He got ready.
Now to install it...
make sub-ibase-install_subtargets
Driver can be used.
Here are the dances with tambourines.
