There are also pkg-config files, but those aren't really tested.
qbs and windeployqt currently don't work very well (see issues). Using the

### Tested build and deployment tools for mingw-w64-qt6 packages
In order to build a Qt-based project using mingw-w64-qt6 packages one also needs
to install the regular `qt6-base` package for development tools such as moc. The
packages `qt6-tools` and `qt6-declarative` contain also native binaries which
might be required by some projects. At this point the setup can break if the
version of regular packages and the versions of the mingw-w64 packages differ. I
cannot do anything about it except trying to upgrade the mingw-w64 packages as
fast as possible. There's actually a lengthy discussion about this topi on the
[Qt development
mailinglist](https://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2021-September/
041732.html) so the situation might improve in the future. Note that as of

one can specify `-DQT_NO_PACKAGE_VERSION_CHECK=TRUE` to ignore the strict
versioning check.
