Let me give you another non-android example:
You want to create a standalone SDK for linux armhf using yocto. You'll
generate the SDK with everything including Qt for host and for target, the sdk
is a huge auto extract archive which can be shared with everyone. Can this
archive contain only the Qt for the target? Nope because there is no way to
know if and where the Qt for host is installed on everyone computers, you also
need to know where the Qt for host it is in order to fix the hardcoded paths.

Thanks. That's looks indeed like a good example that affects more people than just a handful of Qt devs. Will add a note to the report and adjust the prio.

The alternative approach for this case is to enable QT_BUILD_WITH_TOOLS for the yocto build and rely on binfmt_misc to transparently execute arm binaries.


Cheers,
