Dear Qt Devs, I think I asked this question in the past, but I never got a reasonable answer. The question is actually quite simple:
How can I create a Qt5 offline installer for example for 5.11.1 MinGW 5.3.0 32 bit? I'm aware of the qt/qtsdk repository and its scripts. There is also some high level description in the READMEs. But following the coin builds, those are using GO scripts which are as far as I can see not public.So that means, Qt build servers have been using those python scripts in the past, but now they don't and that renders them in fact untested and unmaintained. I don't mind doing more steps manual (even if automating it fully would be super great), but I cannot even find a easy way of doing it manually. It was often mentioned in this mailing list, that users/developers can build their own version of Qt and the official binaries are just a subset. That's fair enough and I can and do regularly build Qt on my own. But my own build doesn't help me much, if I cannot bundle it into a proper installer and make it available to other people and/or build servers.To me, this is still a very important step which should be properly documented and as easy reproducable as the regular Qt5 build. So if anyone has a good and easy to follow guide, how to produce my own offline installer, please share it with me. Ideally we come up with a wiki page similar to https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git. The reason why I'm asking is, that I would like to try and get some changes into the binaries (release build with debug symbols for crash dumps, MSVC 2017 32 and 64 bit builds etc). Looking forward to any help. Thanks, Roland
