This is basically also how I have done it today. But I use the x86-cross
build script from mingw to build a mingw cross environment first, and
the build my packages in that environment. Then I pack the files I need
into a zip file that is transfered to a window xp machin where
installshield is used to build an installer.
I have not tried yet to use Fedoras own mingw environment. That is
basically what I want, but in a clean setup each time.

I have not tried nsis yet, but would like to try that. I guess I have
some trial and error in front of me :-)

Howto set up a chroot build environment for deployment?
by Per Arnold Blaasmo
Hi,
I am in the need to have a build environment for windows that builds
every night and that is started from a clean state and ends up in a
install program.
Is there any howto or does someone have a setup like this that they can
share.
I use 'mock' for building different Linux RPM or DEB packages, but I
would also like to have something like that for a Windows install file.
A 'mock' setup that produces a final install file for Windows would be
great.
Any tips?
Regard
Per A.
