[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64836] [MXE] Build falilure of Qt-6.6.0

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #64836 (project octave):

The log now contains the full linker command that is failing. There doesn't
seem to be any `-pthread` or `-lpthread` argument in that command. 
My first guess is that this might be an issue with the build rules (or
sources?) of Qt6.6. But it might also be an issue with the version of CMake
installed on your Mageia.

It is failing while trying to link a native Linux library that is needed to
bootstrap the cross-build for the MinGW target. Installing
`mingw64-winpthreads` won't make a difference. Also, MXE Octave doesn't (or
shouldn't) use any MinGW packages installed on the build system anyway (like
you correctly assumed).

The configuration log says:

Support enabled for:
[...]
  Thread support ......................... no


So, maybe it is building something that it shouldn't be building in the first
place?

I'll try to look into why that could be happening. But that might be difficult
because it's just building fine for me on Ubuntu 23.10 (and on the
buildbots).
