I noticed that on 10.12, 10.13 and 10.14 the command contains mac_sdk_min="10.1X" (X being respectively 2, 3, and 4), while on 10.15 that argument is mac_sdk_min="10.15.6": maybe that is the problem.

With Qt 5.15.2 on Catalina w/Xcode 11.1, I had to change qtwebengine/src/3rdparty/chromium/build/mac/find_sdk.py to look for 11.x+ SDKs. Lines 91-93 wound up looking like this, in case it helps anyone else:

  sdks = [re.findall('^MacOSX(11\.\d+)\.sdk$', s) for s in os.listdir(sdk_dir)]
  sdks = [s[0] for s in sdks if s]  # [['11.0'], ['11.1']] => ['11.0', '11.1']
  sdks = [s for s in sdks  # ['11.0', '11.1'] => ['11.1']

thanks -- I'll give that a try and patch it if I see the same events.

How come you need to have it look for 11.x+ SDKs when using Xcode 11.1 which comes with 10.15 SDK? Isn't it going to at least throw a bunch of warnings when using QtWebEngine, when Qt has been built with 10.15.x and QtWebEngine has been built with 11.x?
