Hello Sandro,
thanks for letting me know. I think you forgot to update the
qtquickcontrols package. It's still stuck at 5.6.0 and causes a conflict
when attempting to install mingw32-qt\* . I'll try to build it here
myself and I'll let you know how it works with ANGLE.
Martin
I confirm that with your 5.7.1 packages it works alright too. Thanks!
When (and if) updating qtquickcontrols, please consider building the
package statically, too.
