It's libdbus-1-3.dll, but you are correct, there is no dependency:

I just tested if my previous build was causing this, since it was the
usual one which produces both shared and static libraries... uninstalled
it, deleted all copies of the shared library, rebuild dbus and Qt,
rebuild the Qt application... but there is still an old:

        usr/i686-pc-mingw32/lib/libdbus-1.dll.a

which pulls the dependency.  Delete.  Problem solved.

I don't see the library being used twice, but I will test without the
use of pkg-config... you're right, "CONFIG += qdbus" is enough.

Yes.

Looks like you answered your own question here.  Actually it doesn't
even matter which one is used, as long as PKG_CONFIG_PATH is set correctly.
