We really have different perception of "harder"! Anything involving running windows and clicking is harder for me. So let me spread the world like you: "cross-compilation is easier!" :-) I know at least on Fedora, a yum install mingw* for your deps is all you need: run mingw32-configure instead of configure. (same for cmake or qmake, and 64 bits) and make. This gives you a very reliable build environment, much more than any personal tweaked mingw installation. But that's cross-compilation, you know what I know better :) -- Marc-André Lureau
