I was just about to send a “resolved” email to the list (for other who may have the same problem.
Ill file the bugs later today or tomorrow; 1) The issue’s root cause is that the library was named starting with a Q, so the tool assumed it was a Qt library not a library using Qt. 2) The ignore library errors switch doesn’t apply to Qt libraries 3) There is no way to add a “lib search dir” that works for this situation.

As a last resort (e.g. if libraries are in multiple locations), custom shared libraries can also be added manually to the output directory. That coud be done in a custom script, in addition to or wrapping windeployqt.

Windeployqt fails to find the shared library, because its looking in the QT directory. I don’t see any option on windeployqt to give it other paths to search or to exclude a dependency. Any help would be greatly appreciated Scott _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
