@aleix: From my experience on adding cross compile support at https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/home:rhabacker:branches:windows:mingw:win32:KF526, which is complete and works, there are several details to cover and I'm not sure how much work remains to make it complete using the KF5_HOST_TOOLING way after you documentated it. Because the original KDE cmake guru abandoned his approach to implement cross compile support with KDE 4.5 and never resumes it looks really to have some major issues. My suggestion is therefore to complete the recent approach (which can coexist with the incomplete KF5_HOST_TOOLING stuff if wished) to have a stable and working solution and then to see how to improve cross compile support by supporting the KF5_HOST_TOOLING way. In short my approach compiles required native cross tools at home:rhabacker:branches:KDE:Frameworks526 (kcoreaddons and sonnet also includes required tools for cross compiling but related kf5 packages version 5.26 already installs them unconditionally in the development package. (With a few pending kf5 build system related patches reviewed this project can be skipped). At https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/home:rhabacker:branches:windows:mingw:win32:KF526 all required native tools are packaged (and relocated to /usr/bin/<cross-prefix>-<toolname>) by the mingw32-cross-kf5-tools package. With this and other mingw32-cross... packages provided by the opensuse windows:mingw:win32 project, windows kf5 packages are build. The mingw32-kxx packages fetches kf5 source packages extracted directly from kde git server using tags and uses local patches from for fixing remaining issues (for example https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:rhabacker:branches:windows:mingw:win32:KF526/mingw32-kdoctools).
