I think that should technically be possible, but I have doubts about it. Not all tools are "bootstrap" tools anymore, which means for uic you need to build QtCore (same for qmake actually). I think qtdeclarative has tools that depend on QtQml. So you'll have to have this weird hybrid of a Qt installation that needs to be maintained to work. > > Best, > Jean-Michaël > > > On Tue, Jun 9, 2020 at 10:14 AM Alexandru Croitor <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > > On 9.
