nspr: fix for mock build
by Amorilia 07 May '11

07 May '11

Hi everyone, Here's a fix for the build problem for nspr in mock: http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/1c143a5840bb15b11098edb7130e… It seems that the problem goes back all the way to AC_PROG_CC: when wine is installed, apparently AC_PROG_CC (mistakenly?) sets cross_compiler to false. Additionally, here's a sync of the spec file with the native fedora one, and a few extra build patches: http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/19af2a48f6d2cc90009c581a7e8a… http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/629eb75b24e1755c92041b614b40… http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/commit/44031e8cf4d0149debeb97c0c833… Although the tests build, when running them under wine, many fail. I haven't investigated this further. I don't plan to work on this anymore for the time being, so I'm simply throwing these patches here in case someone else would be interested. For quick reference, full spec file and patches: http://github.com/amorilia/fedora-mingw/tree/master/nspr/ Yours, Amorilia

This has been discussed at http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fedora-mingw/2009-June/001748.html The RPM scripts were added in mingw32-filesystem-52-1.fc12 and some of our regular MinGW packages were rebuild as can be seen at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=111400 After waiting for the next rawhide push we discovered that the mingw32-glib2-debuginfo subpackage wasn't published in the rawhide-debuginfo repository.

Making a library MinGW compatible, general MinGW questions
by Christopher Thielen 27 Sep '10

27 Sep '10

Hi fedora-mingw, I'm one of the developers on an open source game currently compiling on Linux, OS X and Windows. I'd like to set up Fedora cross-compile for the Windows binary; under MSYS/MinGW on Windows, all needed libraries and the game itself compile, so I'm hopeful it will be possible to do this without leaving Fedora. I have a number of distinct problems in accomplishing this, mostly due to my lack of education with MinGW, so I'm hoping this is the correct list to seek help. I think it would be best if I start with some of the earliest issues I encountered in my build process, as they may affect or resolve later questions. First, our software requires: libxml2, SDL, SDL_image, SDL_mixer and FTGL. SDL and libxml2 already have MinGW packages on Fedora and they worked very well. SDL_image and SDL_mixer did not but they compiled fine simply using mingw-configure, make, make install. Be that as it is, is there much else involved in package management for this sort of software? If not, I'd be interested in volunteering to maintain Fedora MinGW packages for SDL_image and SDL_mixer if they're not already on the way. My first real spot of trouble came with FTGL, which uses the GNU autotools but seems to have some compatibility issues with MinGW. I understand this is a bug in FTGL, but I was hoping for advice on fixing this. Their configure script fails to find OpenGL, attempting to link against -lGL. I understand for MinGW it's proper to link against -lopengl32 and add -mwindows to the compiler flags. Would the proper thing to do here be to add a check for the mingw system type in configure.ac and change the CFLAGS and LIBS to -lopengl32 instead of -lGL? My apologies if this is such an elementary question but if I could learn more about this, I'd like to help ensure MinGW compatibility in more packages and in my own software. Again, this is sort of the first of a small number of issues I ran into, but I'd like to take them one at a time instead of spamming the list with problems. If this is not the proper list, I'd appreciate some advice on finding another. Thank you, Chris Thielen
