Code:

checking for QtDBus... no
./configure: line 21329: syntax error near unexpected token `QTPLATFORM,'
./configure: line 21329: ` PKG_CHECK_MODULES(QTPLATFORM, Qt5PlatformSuppo
rt, QT_LIBS="$QTPLATFORM_LIBS $QT_LIBS")'

Pierre-Louis@Bellatrix /f/dev/Worldcoin_core/1rc3/bitcoin
$ pkg-config --version
0.28

I tried copying the files from pkg-config dev/tool, compiled/installed pkg-config-lite, reran autogen.sh, started another msys, rebooted even, but still configure gives me this error (0.10.1rc3). Is it possible there's an environment variable missing (like qtplatform_libs or something)?

Running pkg-config gives me the right version number so I'm assuming it's installed correctly. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Copying pkg.m4 to C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\share\aclocal (or whatever your msys install folder is) should fix it.

Also make sure the mingw, and toolchain bin paths are BOTH in your PATH variable(for me, C:\MinGW\bin and C:\MinGW\mingw32\bin), although im sure if you got this far already they likely are.

This is not necessary. In a properly configured environment you will have no C:\MinGW\mingw32\bin folder and C:\MinGW\bin will just contain mingw-get executable.

configure --prefix=/mingw32 && make && make install

------
or just..my easy solution, copy paste

i had pkg installed earlier as i did it with gpuminer. (copy paste bin/share folders)
now installed pkg again as you told above and now there is one error line less..
but still this:

./configure: line 21247: syntax error near unexpected token `QTPLATFORM,'
./configure: line 21247: ` PKG_CHECK_MODULES(QTPLATFORM, Qt5PlatformSuppo
rt, QT_LIBS="$QTPLATFORM_LIBS $QT_LIBS")'

edit, solved
to mingw32 folder:
************************

3. Click and download both the Tool link and the Dev link
