OK, I'll look into that series. Thanks.

I had this happen on Linux both native and cross building for Windows. But
only the first time I try it. Haven't done a clean checkout and tried
again.

I just ran into another problem. You removed a ton of stuff from
subsurface-install.pri that was used to set up the versions. You ignored
the fact that the variables used in that process are reused later in that
file both for Windows and Mac builds... So this all needs to be redesigned
in order to make sure that this data is now assembled at make time
(instead of at qmake time).

Right now this prevents me from doing my usual Windows and Mac builds :-(
