I'm pretty sure you're calling the wrong qmake here. You need to modify PATH the same way e.g. rules/qwt5.make does. > 2.) rather large Qt libraries are installed to the target now.

Do you need qmake from qt5 or would qt6 work as well? We already have a host-qt6 package and if we build the binary there and split out the qmake config stuff from qt6 into a new cross-qmake package. It would need to copy the mkspecs from the host package I think before adding the custom mkspecs stuff.
