ok, https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-80806 submitted
I only had to report about the release build problem. the debug build problems that there are no .dll's with a d.dll suffix was already reported 2 days ago:
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-80763

If you promise you will only use windeployqt for Release builds I can give you a patched windeployqt.exe...

Edit: I patched that line 829, to
*isDebugIn = false;
and rebuilt windeployqt to a new .exe, called it windeployqtreleaseonly
Drop it into C:\Qt\5.14.0\mingw73_32\bin and you're good to go.

@hskoglund 64bit version , pls. Thanks for your contribution.

hskoglund

@catshy Here you go: windeployqt64releaseonly

Same here, drop the .exe in your C:\Qt\5.14.0\mingw73_64\bin and hopefully this will be a good start for your 2020 :-)

@hskoglund Well Done. This solved my problem very well and best wishes for 2020 :+)

@hskoglund Seems that nobody at Qt gives a... nything about this bug? It's a year later and 5.15.2 apparently still suffers from the very same issue. Thank you for the patched windeployqt version!

Worse, the conan package for Qt 5.15.2 has the same problem and the patched binary can't just be dropped in.

Edit: Actually it is fixed. The --debug flag specifies installing the debug versions, not, as was posted elsewhere on the internet, turning on debug output for windeployqt.

@hskoglund Oh yeah, thank you very much for your patched versions. Sadly, those are still required in Qt 5.15.2 (working also with C:\Qt\5.15.2\mingw81...... )
