Dear people of Msys2,

I hope someone can help me out. My objective is to build Qt on a Windows 7 64 
bit computer. I already installed TDM-GCC-64 which includes the Mingw-w64 
windows API.

I’m already able to compile and link some of my C++ code with GCC and 
Mingw-w64, with makefiles.

I’m familiar with compiling and linking my programs with MSVC on the command 
prompt. But I want to turn away from Microsoft for software development in 
C/C++.

I read somewhere Msys2 is the easiest tool to use to reach the goal of building 
Qt. Msys2-x86_64 is also installed and I can get to that command prompt.

Also I would like to have my development computer OFFLINE from the internet. 
The pacman command seems to want to download stuff so that is not going to work.

So, I am basically stuck at how do I provide Qt to pacman. On the development 
computer I do have for example the qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.3.2.zip file. 
Of course I can download something else from the Qt Company. But at least I 
know a build of qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.3.2.zip on gcc with mingw-w64 is 
what solves my goal.

Please be specific in what you recommend me to do. Then I can use your advice 
and I would be very grateful about it.

Best regards,
Maarten Verhage
