    Have successfully built Qt 5.9.1 for Windows from source using mingw. However, the default "configure, mingw32-make, mingw32-make install" process installs everything in /usr/local/lib. That's fine for UNIX-like systems, but not so optimal for Windows. Can anyone point me to where "/usr/local/lib" is specified so I can change it to some other location?

      @drmhkelley Use -prefix parameter when you call configure. See http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/configure-options.html

        Perfect - thanks. Not sure how I missed or mis-understood that.
