Angus,
could you please try --disable-debug and see if the situation improves? You
can also use "export CXXFLAGS=-gstabs" if you really insist on debugging.
Compile qtwin with .\configure -release -static
If the situation does not improve dramatically, could you please check
whether you have installed the latest MinGW packages (in particular g++ and
binutils)?
Michael

Thanks for the infos. I compiled Qtwin once with the MinGW compiler and
was shocked that this took several hours. How long does MinGW need to
compile LyX?
Fortunately Qtwin can be compiled with MSVC.
I'll surely come up with further questions about compiling issues.
See my previous email. Linking LyX 1.4 statically with MinGW doesn't take
longer than just a few minutes on a modern PC. I don't understand all the
worries.
Well now. I have a modern (2 year old) 2.7GHz machine with 512MByte of RAM
and although static linking is indeed quicker, it still takes ~45minutes
to link LyX 1.4 on this machine. That compares to over an hour when using
shared libraries, so there is a benefit.
I'm not disputing that things work for you. I'm just saying that your
mileage may vary.
