libGL does exists, but linker can't find it - Qt 4.8.7, CentOS 7.5

I have CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 with Qt 4.8.7 installed from base repo. I installed NVidia driver version 390.59 release date 2018.5.16. I have libGL-mesa and libGL-mesa-devel INSTALLED also. My graphics card Quadro K4000M is doing just fine - for example, glxgears 60fps, Qt Demos (OpenGL) work.

But when I am trying to compile the chip example, I am getting the following error:

/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/../../../libGL.so when searching for -lGL
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible //lib/libGL.so when searching for -lGL
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible //usr/lib/libGL.so when searching for -lGL
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [chip] Error 1

Here is the ls command output:

[user@centos-7 ~]$ ls -h /usr/lib64/ | grep "libGL"

How to solve the problem?
