Of course.
It wasn't obvious to me from what other subdir I should run make.

I suppose ~/mxe-octave/tmp-qt/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3 ?
(just tried - see below)

No, but after checking I'll rather set it to:
/home/Philip/mxe-octave/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig


(Hmmmm just tried the above - I still get:

:
cd mng/ && make -f Makefile

From where should I start over?

Thanks,
