[aur-general] Concerning mingw-w64-qt
I was hoping to get mingw-w64-qt placed into multilib or community repo because today I had built the package, but it took approximately TEN HOURS to do so. This is because it builds static release, static debug, shared release, and shared debug for both 32 and 64-bit. I will admit the full suite is very handy, but it would be great to have a binary package in the repo to save people the abysmal build time. Seeing as mingw-w64's toolchain has a good number of votes and Qt's widespread use, I feel it would be a great benefit to cross platform developers, again, given the circumstances of the above issue. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60127 Thanks
