This post is a brief extract of a wonderfully detailed video made by Ulas Dikme. Many thanks to Ulas for sharing his experiences, it saved me several days of work setting up the cross-compilation environment.
Ulas was using an Ubuntu 20 Virtual Box machine for building a sysroot and qt base. While it's not the best solution performance-wise, it's certainly very convenient in terms of being portable across the host machines. My Qt5 build system resides on a USB hard drive.
