      Hi,

      You can use the mingw provided with the Qt 5 packages

        Qt 4.8 is built with MinGW 4.4. It is NOT compatible with MinGW 4.8 (provided with Qt 5.1) or MinGW 4.7 (provided with Qt 5.0). However, users have reported that MinGW 4.6 and MinGW 4.5 work fine.

        Someone is kindly hosting MinGW 4.4 at http://nosymbolfound.blogspot.com.au/2012/12/since-until-now-qt-under-windows-is.html

          You might also want to have a look at TDM-GCC.

          Older version (4.6.x, 4.5.x and even 4.4.x) can be found at:

          • http://tinyurl.com/mz4fk5g

          (I have to use TinyURL, because this forum screws up the URL otherwise)

          _

          But I would rather try to re-build Qt 4.8.5 with an up-to-date MinGW 4.8.x.

            I might have misunderstood the original question :) I thought about building Qt. It's been a while since I used a precompiled version

              Sorry not to precisely explain what I need. I'm not building the libraries, I just need to use them.
