Ok, so after getting configure -help to work I get the expected list of options followed by ...
+ D:/-/usr/src/qt/5.0.0/qtbase/bin/qmake D:/-/usr/src/qt/5.0.0/qtsdk.pro 'D:/-/usr/src/qt/5.0.0/qtbase/bin/qmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. -------------- Apparently it's assuming qmake is built. Not a big deal but it's a little embarrassing when the configure step 1) doesn't work, and 2) outputs spurious errors. If this is an indicative of how the rest of my Qt 5 experience will go, I'm more than a little worried. ~ af On Thu, Dec 20, 2012 at 5:38 AM, andy fillebrown <andy.fillebr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Wow.
