So I thought that it woöuld be good to update Qt5 before it becomes Qt6…
unfortunately the version in Cygwin is 5.9.4 while 5.15.2 is current, so
there is quite a bit of changes to wade through. It doesn't help that
that the Cygwin patches never got upstreamed or accepted (the net result
is the same). I think I've got the whole thing cleaned up so that it
should work, but there is one change that stumps me:
In 5.9.4 the QT5 libraries were linked via
-L/mnt/share/packages/qt5-base-5.9.4-2.src/qt5-base.x86_64/build/lib -lQt5Core
while in 5.15.2 that has changed to
/mnt/share/packages/qt5-base/qt5-base.x86_64/build/lib/cygQt5Core.dll
This nixes the fixup that was supposed to get the correct name there
(which I had to disable anyway because it now mucks up the target name
for the .prl stuff). I have no good idea where to fix that up, I think
I'd want the link library (.dll.a) there if I need to keep the absolute
path. For now I've done a monkey patch around that with a hardlink, but
there must be a better way of doing it… The compile now goes through, I
later get an error because it tries to use some tools that I haven't yet
installed.
Regards,
Achim.

I've pushed the WIP to the playground branch for easier inspection:

Unfortunately I can't help with the qt5 build questions. Been down that path and
gotten lost. But if/when you have a package ready for test installation, I can
shortly thereafter provide a patch to qt5-base that fixes the longstanding
Cygwin-specific gnuplot vs qterminal issue. Upstream doesn't seem inclined to fix.

what is curious is that it is not what you would expect by the name
$ file *Qt5Core*
cygQt5Core.dll: current ar archive
cygQt5Core.la: libtool library file, ASCII text
cygQt5Core-5.dll: PE32+ executable (DLL) (console) x86-64, for MS Windows
libQt5Core.dll.a: current ar archive
libQt5Core.prl: ASCII text, with very long lines
$ md5sum *Qt5Core*
cc96f43516bb8dfb2777119304d70cfc *cygQt5Core.dll
a6a615ba27c7615d1c0414e434e9df2f *cygQt5Core.la
ab6831713192ecffae52b600e4243675 *cygQt5Core-5.dll

3cb42dafcdb46d3b9b68295064b758d5 *libQt5Core.prl
and it is more or less the same for all the libs

it crashes for me for some resource issues, but after
re-kicking the build it is now running through all the examples

it seems the only big issue is building the documentation requires
a more modern version of qt5-doc-tools than 5.9
probably a boot strapping without docs is needed
to rebuild the qt5-doc-tools
Have you had any progress ?

Yes, you'll have to do a full bootstrap, Yaakov hinted at the correct
order of building things on IRC. Once you're done, just build
everything again…

If you look at the cygport files you'll see that the support for that is
already there.

I've had to lay it off since it was eating up too much time that I
needed for other things. Eventually I might get back to it, but I'd not
be mad if you beat me to it.

Achim.
