Why did you compile QT in cygwin on Windows? Why not just install Qt for
windows. If you compile your Qt application using MinGW, all you have to
deploy with your application is the mingw10.dll. Your application won't
need an X-server. An application compiled under cygwin will require
users to install cygwin on their computers and start cygwin's X-server
prior to using your application.
