== Building on Linux with mxe ==
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
With this approach you can cross build a Windows binary on Linux using MXE (M cross environment).
 | 
						|
You can find the build script and a README.md file in the ms-windows/mxe directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For now, Python buildings cannot be built with mxe.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=== Building with Docker ===
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This is the simplest way, but you need to have Docker installed
 | 
						|
on your system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can use a Docker image to cross build QGIS by calling
 | 
						|
the script ms-windows/mxe/build.sh from the root directory of QGIS repository.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=== Building without Docker ====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This requires to install mxe toolchain on your system and build
 | 
						|
all dependencies by yourself.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
==== Initial setup ====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Please follow the instructions on mxe website to setup your building toolchain http://mxe.cc/,
 | 
						|
take note of the path where you have installed mxe.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
==== Building the dependencies ====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Please see README.md under ms-windows/mxe for detailed instructions and for the
 | 
						|
list of dependencies that need to be built in mxe before attempting to build QGIS.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
==== Cross-Building QGIS ====
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Edit the build-mxe.sh script and optionally adjust the path where your mxe installation is located, you
 | 
						|
can also change the build and release directories.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=== Testing QGIS ===
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Copy and unzip on the Windows machine package produced by the build and launch the qgis binary: no installation
 | 
						|
is required.
