    Description

      I got the "LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\lib\10.0.17763.0\um\x64\shell32.lib'" error when I was trying to compile something using Qt 5.14.0 alpha. I only installed Windows SDK version 10.0.18362.0, but Qt never try to find shell32.lib in the new SDK's directories.

      It turns out that Qt hard coded the absolute path of some libraries in .prl files. Of course the compilation will fail because I didn't install that version of Win SDK.
