 From what you show above, it looks like -lqscintilla2_qt5 should be 
found (you are not showing any error messages after the test for that 
file) but then configure apparently goes on to check for the library 
again with the name qt5scintilla2.  Are you omitting some info here?

Could you post the complete config.log file and also the complete 
summary info that is printed to the terminal when you run configure?
